I believe her.

I have been in the tech industry for almost 30 years. These things she talks about are not new and will keep happening unless more people talk about them. I gave that Linus guy a listen once or twice, was never impressed. His fans are delusional, this thread contains a few of them!

Agreed. However, I still want to see facts, because it is possible that she's exaggerating. Until I see facts, I'm going to believe Madison.

That said, I rarely watch LTT or any related channels. I find them to be shallow, often click-bait, and their merch advertising is incredibly annoying. I get my tech news and entertainment from other channels, such as Gamer's Nexus, Level1Techs, Louis Rossmann, OptimumTech, Tech Ingredients, and SomeOrdinaryGamers.

I don't understand the rabid following LMG has, but I do try to be objective in my criticism. I think GN's coverage recently was pretty revealing (the one about testing quality), especially when paired with this article.

What is she exaggerating? It's her perspective. The things she described are not exaggerating.

I don't know, that's why I want to see more facts about the situation.

So that's why I'm defaulting to believing the victim until I have evidence to the contrary. She has provided her side, I'm waiting for LMG to provide theirs.
