He’s a narcissist so I don’t think his subs have high expectations.

I unsubbed a couple of weeks ago because they released that always live video thing and it gave me the shits seeing the icon

Just being the messenger here. The problem is that it’s 100k of 15.6 (previously) million. People don’t care, which means nor will Linus. It’s incredibly likely that the “resolution” will amount to nothing, and the channel will remain dead to me.

I never really liked ltt but I just don’t care how he treats employees. People can quit.

What a pro-worker stance you have considering the instance you’re on.

While youtube hasn’t had much impact (I’m not sure that tracker updates subscriptions very fast either tbh); Floatplane probably will.

From ~42k subscribers down to ~36k. A 16% drop (~$30k/mo at $5 per sub)

I’ve said this on another thread, but how had video of several employees confessing to feeling rushed and not putting out product that will be open to critique slip by him. Did he chalk it up to just bros being bitches **(bro speak)

The thing is, although LTT is important to Linus, his wife, and with direct ties, the viewers have many choices today with regards to the tech YouTubers of different nature. This makes it easy to just move one. LTT is a mass marketed channel, not particularly niche in any area of tech and there are many like it.

Maybe, but with their size LTT can do crazy shit like water-cooling an entire server room with a pool.

These things are always temporary. They’ll lose subs for a moment, but then it’ll bounce back like nothing

Yep… it surprises me that people still think that the internet has principles or cares. Haven’t we seen how weak people are for reddit already?

I can’t tell you how disappointed I am on how this ended. I really thought the “Landed Gentry” quip would have had the pouring gasoline to be out a fire effect.
