Personally, I find his Linux and privacy-related endeavors commendable, but I widely disregard of his political stances.
I think he’s a good source of knowledge, but definitely has his biases. I especially think it’s funny when he laments corpo bullshit, but then defends their right to do the bullshit. As with most libertarians, he gets close to the point and then nose dives off the bad takes cliff.
As with most things, learn what you can, lionize no one.
He’s very edgy, I don’t like his content. If I want someone to talk about tech, I’d rather they just talk about tech and not make wojack thumbnails and constantly making fun of politics.
Good on privacy and monero. I wish he would do more hands-on I2P and Monero stuff.
Dislike the politics. But alt-right sympathizers have been part of the scene ever since I can remember.
I prefer the European cyperpunk scene. Less guns and bootlicking, more sticking it to the man. Sadly, we aren’t really producing much English language content, so Americans still have an edge online.
I love how you casually ignored the existence of English speaking countries in Europe. I think at least Ireland deserves better lol
Same as Luke smith, good linux content but they both cryptofascists. Also its funny that they both turned into grifters, one with monero and one with a shitty dropshipping merch.
I spent so much of my time in the Gentoo community fixing things that have gone wrong through newbies taking his advice as gospel. I’d be happy if he never made another video, and that’s outside of, well, everything else.
