We have investigated ourselves and have found we did nothing wrong. Just like today’s sponsor…

They are supposed to be getting an external investigator.

Now and then I think of when I was in power
Like choking people with the Force until they died
But then you told them all my history
And took away my masculinity
And had my character portrayed by subpar actors.

I’m a bit out of the loop (can’t catch a breathe while following LTT these days). Are there any details on what’s being alleged? All I know about is the apparently very high pressure.

All the drama started from this video

Gamers Nexus then made a video breaking down a bunch of issues with LMG

Linus responded 3 hours after GN posted their video.

The response was rushed and poorly made. Gamers Nexus the next day made a response.

Which made LinusTechTips push out a video addressing some of the concerns and what they are gonna do.

Then, an ex-employee came out, stating many of the issues they had with the company.

LinusTechTips on twitter (or x i guess?) stated they are looking into it.

Philip Defranco summarizes everything within 10 minutes and includes a couple of questions they asked LMG. I thought he did pretty well, so its alot better than spending several hours looking into everything.

They also made an apology video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cTpTMl8kFY (this is not meant to defend them, just to include all info)

To my knowlege these are some of the alleged problems:

  • Horrible work conditions, overworked and hostile
  • Improper testing and multiple mistakes on vids and data
  • Screwed over startup, prototype sold off

Do not take my word for it, I would check out:

I have never watched Linus Tech Talk and have no interest in Youtuber drama but to be clear: “overworked” refers to the person who had to send 3 tweets and 3 Tiktoks a day?

Yes, but she also mentions that the new people that don’t know any better are also being overworked. New to the working force, fresh grads.
