very interesting subject ruined by Linus shenanigans and his 4 thousands ads for worthless merch.
You could have left it at merch, I have the backpack and screwdriver and would call them the opposite of worthless. Screwdriver sees routine use on my car and building for friends, and the backpack goes everywhere with me, and often hauls my tools and multiple laptops.
I understand but liking ads, I block them as well, but at least have a good reason to disparage them, or be honest.
I also have the screwdriver so I guess his methods. but now that he has multiple decent products he has too shoehorn every item on every single video and as the catalog expands he expends more and more time on the item in addition to the video sponsor. it was fine when it was a single hoodie but now is hoodies, underwear, screwdriver, backpack, water bottle, desk pads, etc. like hell one time at the beginning of the video used to be tolerable but now it's just absurd.
