Will be curious to hear Linus’ response, the Billet labs thing is super weird

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Linus responded on their forum, he said it was a 'mistake' and that they're gonna pay Billet Labs back for the prototype (trust me bro).

I would donate to a gofundme for Billet Labs to sue LTT tbh. Have been watching Linus since his ncix days but this behaviour is disguisting and his response just solidifies that LTT has gone down the shitter. Unsubscribed from all their channels.
