~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~

~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

Linus Media Group CEO Terren Tong also responded via email, saying he was “shocked at the allegations and the company described” in Reeve’s posts. He went on to note that “as part of this process, beyond an internal review we will also be hiring an outside investigator to look into the allegations and will commit to publish the findings and implementing any corrective actions that may arise because of this.”

Hope we can get some more memes out of Linus now that he’s more useless.

Watched YT vid, not looking good for LTT.

Looks like a PR response politians make, with sponsors and store shoutout, just like any other video they post...

Hopefully the pressure keeps coming and LMG workers start a union, a the minimum.

Out of the loop, can someone give me a tl;dr on who this guy is why I keep seeing this everywhere?

Large tech reviewer. Runs his own company called Linus Media Group (LMG). Called out another review channel called Gamer Nexus(GN). GN hit back with a video detailing gross inaccuracies in LMG published test results. For example outliers of 300%. This has opened the flood gates for people to remind the Internet what a horrific company LMG has been for many years. Basically LMG glorifies the grind mindset and promote the typical hostile work environment that is the epitome of startups
