The dude has always seemed so smarmy to me so hearing this really isn’t that surprising. I’m happy they’re getting their comeuppance but doubt it will be as much as they deserve.
A few years back I remarked that Linus always came off like a bit of a douchebag. I was at the time heavily downvoted, but holy fuck. This is worse than I expected.
I watched like five minutes of a video like 10+ years ago and found it obnoxious. Reddit has such a hard on for him. Maybe it’s because I’m old, but I cannot stand his style.
When you say you're old, how old do you actually mean? I'm in my mid 30s and I feel exactly the same way.
…I’m in my mid-30s hahahaha
This is definitely stuff designed for kids.
I'm a similar age and have a similar experience w/ LTT. I'll occasionally watch a video because an early-20s coworker really likes it (something to talk about I guess), but I'm not a fan in any way. I mostly look at it as "what the average person thinks" and I don't expect any actual analysis.
I dunno. Run through a browser news tab and it has more than a few stories about Linus/LTT, like this and this.
