I didn’t find this to be overly dramatic or sensationalized. I enjoy knowing when one of the people I regularly watch are in fact assholes. Note, he didn’t say they were assholes. He merely repeated what they did and called out issues. He said he wouldn’t be covering the channel anymore after their response. Just decent journalism in my opinion.
Yea, but ever since Nexus started doing their “investigations”, so much of their content looks like cable news. They now jump on all opportunities to drum up more drama.
Yeah, Linus admitted that himself. He still owns the majority, and Yvonne owns the rest. The CEO really can’t actually do anything that Linus doesn’t want, he’s just a figurehead and businessman there to keep Linus from being forced into the office and off the camera.
They came from a tech journalist forum before doing reviews, covering bad practices in the industry, most notoriously MSI, and Linus being the face of PC hardware with so many inaccuracies is just another topic.
Understandable, but I think many people (including me) are fine with a little drama every once in a while as long as it’s warranted and doesn’t damage the substance of the content. Unnecessary drama can certainly be a problem, but unnecessarily making dramatic things boring is not necessarily the solution.
I can agree with that. It may be that ever since I no longer subscribe to the tech elite (LTT, MKBHD, Nexus, Jays2Cents, etc) - I only come across their content when there is drama!
So annoying how all good tech channels now lean on drama and sensationalism to get more engagement.
Digital Foundry seems to be the last one where people are level-headed.

If you’re more concerned with the muckrakers than the muck idk what to tell you
LMG has a lot of issues. Clickbait, and now this.
I hope the new CEO will intervene sooner or later, although a lot of CEOs only exist as de-facto mascots.
I’m not sure the new CEO has any actual power when it comes to reining Linus in.

So a yet another puppet CEO, just like the in Twitter… oh sorry, X.
No they don’t. Go take a look at their list of videos. You have to scroll for a while to find any of the ones you consider drama.

Yes, facts are drama, for sure.
