  I don’t know the details but it seems like GN and Linux Sebastion are throwing punches again, with Louis Rossman having published a video siding with the former today

    my take was that GN Steve is the one throwing punches and Linus said on the WAN Show that he didn’t want any part of it

      Linus is scummy, definitely only cares about $$ and image. kept pushing honey after he knew it was a scam and left his fans in the dark to continue getting tracked and scammed. immoral shit bag.

        I feel like a lot of this is wrong. He only knew about the creator link hijacking, not the anti consumer practice of not using the best Coupons.

        Additionally he did drop honey? He didn’t keep pushing it.

        If he didn’t know about the fake coupon comparison how is he leaving the fanbase to get scammed?

        Yeah so I really like Louis Rossman but he’s kinda inconsistent. His recent video brings up his narcissistic behaviour but a couple months ago there was this: youtu.be/qHwP6S_jf7g

        And this video was posted wayyy after Linus’ narcissistic behaviour was on full display. Not to mention in terms of harmful youtube channels out there I feel like ltt is really not that horrible comparatively. ltt is a proponent for right to repair and consumer protection. Not to say we shouldn’t continue to criticize Linus but I don’t know about completely discounting ltt

    Interesting, I saw him on a Jimmy Kimmel thumbnail recently so I thought the controversy was over.
