I feel like I'm taking crazy pills and I have the hottest take on the planet, but I really don't think this is as huge a scandal as everyone wants to make it, and Steve's motives / vibes are just really suspect in this whole thing.
I agree, this all seems way overblown and Linus's reply was pretty level-headed. GN's video seems pretty overblown in that most of it are relatively small errors. And I believe Linus that the auction was a miscommunication in his 100+ employee company.
I fee like people are jumping on the hate bandwagon just because they love the drama, while also forgetting everyone involved are real people and shit just happens sometimes.
