    All these things listed are blunders (some quite big ones) but I think the person who responded to that comment with the opposing view makes a lot of sense. They added the nuance to the situation that the comment you linked to I think glasses over since they obviously don’t like Linus. Personally their (the response comments) take is where I stand on these issues too.

    Obvious, as LTT has grown they have made mistakes but they have always explained their reasoning or otherwise apologised and tried to make things right.

    Overall I think they are a force for good in the world. They teach millions about tech, how to use it, and how you can save money. As they become more corporate their passion may fade but I think it’s still there and I’ll probably keep watching their stuff for the time being

      But you don’t understand. This is the Internet. You are either a saint or the anti-christ. There is nothing In-between and nuance is propaganda. And if you don’t agree with my currently held emotionally charged position, you are what’s wrong with (fill in the blank).

      My issue is he’s a large channel and their videos are consistently inaccurate. I’ve never watched a video of his on linux or android or android tv and couldn’t find numerous flaws. He is a huge channel with a lot of influence and he’s prioritized pumping out inaccurate videos instead of doing the due diligence and research. I feel with as large of a channel he has and as much influence he has, he has a responsibility. Instead he’s doing the tech community as a whole harm. Literally every video I’ve seen from him regarding linux or android was extremely inaccurate or missing beneficial information. I always wrote it off as he’s just a gamer bro and that’s more his niche but then the gamernexus video dropped and showed he was even getting that wrong. LTT has done more harm to the tech community on YouTube than any other channel.
