We shall wait and see what the investigations show...
Edit: words
Edit 2: your vs. you're Edit 3: techy channel vs. tech-channel
We have investigated ourselves and have found we did nothing wrong. Just like today's sponsor...

MODERATORS
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.
Wow, thank you!
I needed to watch this. Thank you!
*you're
Damn it, hahahah
Wow, you actually changed it, that literally never happens! Thank you, I'll sleep better tonight 😄
Awesome, thanks for the help!
Seeing this reminded me of a meme from years ago
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?
They did manage to replace her with a team of 4
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.
Tech-channel would’ve flowed better
Really just anything with the right amount of syllables would have been better.
Thank you. You had one job, OP.
I will improve!
thanks!
He's just some Linus that we used to know.
Whats that about?
Looks like everything is back to normal. Investigations are still ongoing?
Did you learn about it, or not waste time on this?
They do some mass production shit with lots of errors and apparently 100 people can live off a single Youtube Channel?
But I dont wonder. Their thumbnails are horrible and click baity, every single one. It already feels exactly like that.
