This should have been the first response instead of the unhinged rant Linus posted on the forum. If they actually go through with the things they said in the video and fix their workflows and communication issues this should be a big boost to LTT's reliability as a source. Good on GN for giving Linus the reality check he desperately needed. Would have been nice to hear something about Madisons allegations, but they probably scheduled the video to go live before madison posted them. Hopefully they make a follow up video about them.

This response has made me lose so much respect for LTT. Linus really needs to learn when to shut up and stop digging himself into these holes. He could have just apologized, compensated Billet properly and worked on fixing whatever communication issues his team has, but instead he wrote a long non-apology where he deflected blame, tripled down on the Billet situation and just straight up lied about compensating them. Very scummy behaviour from Linus.

Reddit was already full of repost bots and karma farmers when the only reward was fake internet points, the site will become completely unusable if they add real money into the mix
Those games were such a fever dream. I genuinely have no memory of what happened in any of them, I just vaguely remember controlling an army of eyeball men with drums
Upvote = "I like this"
Boost = "I think other people will like this"
What types of games are you playing? Sounds like you are describing a generic AAA "live service" game, there are plenty of fun games but you have to search for them in a sea of soulless corporate cashgrabs. I would recommend trying games by smaller developers. If you want to play with friends I would recommend indie co-op games like risk of rain 2 or deep rock galactic. Or maybe you are just burnt out on gaming? Never hurts to take a break, try another hobby for a bit and come back reinvigorated
I upvote my own stuff because on reddit something having 0 upvotes means someone downvoted it, so i associate having 0 points as "bad" even though that doesn't make sense here because downvotes are shown separately :D force of habit
Either platinuming sekiro or beating devil may cry 5 on dante must die difficulty, I'm not sure which is better. Platinum sounds more impressive, but according to steam achievement stats dmc5 dmd is rarer so I guess I'll pick that one
The center-right Swedish People's Party, which is part of the government coalition, voted against him. The fact that the parties are already disagreeing and infighting doesn't exactly fill me with confidence for the next 4 years of government :D
People are leaning into the hate circlejerk way too hard, apart from the forum rant they have handled this situation pretty well. They addressed GN's concerns in their apology video by improving their workflows and communication, and are now hiring an investigator for Madison's claims. I can't really think of anything more that they could do, but I guess some people just want to be mad.
