I’m 110% with you here. Debian have make it much more difficult to break your system, so it should be stack sponge proof going forward. I still wouldn’t put it past Linus to fuck it up some other way (you know, maybe he’ll curl HTML into bash instead of a script), and he’ll still stand his ground and blame the world. And then later give one of his non-apology apologies.
Same, I was a fan for a while despite them not being great about accuracy, it was entertaining tech-themed content that I knew not to trust for anything serious. Them recommending a custom windows rom that disabled any anti-virus and blocked security updates was when I completely wrote them off. And their excuse was “we showed some of the issues on screen for like 1/2 a second, that’s enough” and refused to acknowledge anyone’s concerns were valid.
Then later it got way worse when it turned out they had issues with serial harassment and stole and auctioned off prototype hardware.

I used to be a huge fan.
