I don’t get why people who don’t like their content bother hating them.

Because for good or bad, they have a significant influence in the tech world. And since they are more bad, people don’t like them.

Take the Linux challenge, for example. They massively misrepresented the usability of Linux for the average person and for gamers. They even concluded at the end of their challenge that Linux was unsuitable for most gamers. And the release and success of the Steam Deck shortly afterwards was quite delicious.

Then there was the bit where Linus didn’t read the warning about the package manager removing the desktop environment and just hit yes, then complained that it wasn’t his fault and that the system was poorly designed.

The guy literally has an issue with accountability.

You’re upset they aren’t more knowledgeable as if everyone making tech content needs to know everything.

A better statement is that I’m upset because they preach their deep and unchallengeable knowledge and act as a be-all end-all authority in tech.

But really I’m not “upset” by them. I just really dislike them and think they’re insufferable.

And I don’t watch LTT. And there are plenty of other, and objectively better, channels about tech. And I watch those better channels, including GamersNexus.

All I’ll say is I’m willing to wait and see if they improve or if they make similar mistakes.

Their entire channel is a giant mistake. All of their content is garbage by virtue of their proven flawed and subpar provides. A process they admitted was flawed, and from what I’ve seen is still flawed with the garbage corrections in the comments nonsense they promised to fix.

They’re just going to go about business as usual and just be a little more careful with their public image. They don’t deserve the views they get.
