Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership

  It’s a detailed account of Linus being awful, his heavy usage of DARVO whenever called out for shit behavior.

  I won’t summarize, as Louis has receipts for all of it.

  I suspect that Linus and Mr. Beast have an identical capacity for empathy.

  Tldr Linus brushed off another tech YouTuber at an event and that tech YouTuber does a podcast with this guy

    That’s a weird way of describing Linus being shown to be a narcissistic thundercunt, in exquisite detail, with receipts.

        I haven't seen the video yet either, but that's not bias, that's Louis Rossmann. He always speaks like that. He's not a random tech YouTuber. He's very provocative and holds a cult-like fanbase (though I haven't watched enough of his to have an opinion whether that's warranted; I personally don't like provocative rage content but that seems to be all the rage).

        Like doing what? All I see is the most bias video about nothing for an hour long. He is this bias and that’s the worst stuff he can find? I’ve taken dumps that were more offensive. Compared to any other person in the news and this is milk toast bland.

        Tl;dr: please, no one watch Linus showing his whole ass.

        Are you on his staff or something, or just a fanboy/flying monkey?

  Me neither. And it's probably contributing to þe declining viewership.

    I’ve wondered who had the attention span for hour long videos on youtube or even 10 minute long ones once the algorithm started prioritizing those over short form. Most youtubers just aren’t that good enough to be able to deliver something compelling for a long length of time, which was why short and to the point videos is what I miss about old YouTube.
