Absolutely but I think it's a bit more than that. Linus is just not relevant to his own company anymore, it's grown beyond him. Honestly it's kinda a mark of success. Linus has the personality of a small to medium social media creator and it's gotten him this far. Fortunately and unfortunately his company is no longer just a social media group, they're expanding and Linus isn't skilled or experienced at that; he's a social media star. Hiring someone else to be CEO was a good idea, time will tell if Tong was a good choice. Honestly what we're watching is LMG going through a growing pain and hopefully they're better for it and don't close shop.
