Wow.
You're viewing a single thread.
You’d think Linus would know better than to ask GN for receipts.
He genuinely believes that he's above all of that now, or almost too successful to fail. If the last huge controversy hasn't put a dent into his cult of personality, not too many other things will
I dunno. I haven't watched another episode since I heard that girl's story about sexual harassment and toxic culture while working there.
Those allegations were proven to be false by an independent third-party investigation
No, it found no evidence one way or the other. It also found that LMG didn’t ignore things and followed their policies, which seems to imply something was being reported. They certainly presented it as absolving them while threatening a lawsuit, but it didn’t prove anything.
Same! I stopped watching any of his company’s content
I've unsubbed from all but the main channel a while before that, but this was the last drop in the ocean too. Even if half of the accusations were false, they way how their response was completely soulless, and full of dumb jokes, was unheard of
I’m team Suop. Linus is a cunt.
Yeah he seems like a real dick.
I blocked all their channels on YouTube after that too.
I stopped long before then because the content had turned into garbage. There's too many tech content creators out there to watch his company's click bait crap.
If I hadn't already, I would have stopped then though.
You are a drop in the bucket. LTT is at 16 million subs to GN's 2.5 million. That story was investigated by a third party with no wrong doing found. LTT isn't going anywhere.
I don't care.
Ok, thanks for letting me know?
Never heard this do you have a link or something?
I had read Madison Reeve's post somewhere but it was in Twitter I think. I can't access it anymore without an account it seems. So here's a couple it articles.

Thanks I actually started searching myself too and found this https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1691693740254228741.html
Edit I also found this
Quote from Madison: I purposefully cut my leg open so badly I would have to go to the ER to get it stapled back together. It was genuinely the only way in my mind to take a day off without being harassed for a reason why.
I think I would leave a crappy job way earlier than even considering commiting self harm.
Thanks for providing these links.
I just checked out r/pcmasterrace and Linus might be right then. Most people over there seem to be parroting Linus excuses and down voting anyone who says otherwise.
How many times do we need to teach you this lesson, old man?!?
I responded elsewhere in this thread with more commentary and I'm also not done reading yet, but how is receipt 1 anything at all? It seems both parties closed that email chain satisfied with the resolution outlined by Linus. If GN was upset with the resolution, maybe they should have said something?
Edit after further reading: How is receipt 2 anything at all either? Steve literally says in the opening of his email that the information is intended to be useful for future attempts. If he wanted LMG to edit old videos or provide extra detailed information then maybe he should have asked?
Receipt 3 is rough for Linus though, he has to do better when it comes to communicating. Not only with the choice of language but when it comes to understanding the the intent and body of a message before responding himself (the latter not too surprising given his history of wan show live responses to misunderstood chat messages).
