  His redemption arch is in full swing.

  He has a video on “I switched to Linux, and you should too” and a geGoogle video

  Beyond his interest in FOSS and privacy, he’s also just mellowed out a ton, the dude is in his mid (late?) thirties and you can tell.

    Dude is also wealthy as fuck. That helps a ton.

    His Japan & family vlogs are also really chill - he has become much more chill and proper. If you remember him from when he got big on YouTube 10 - 15 years ago, he was a completely different person!

      I don’t really remember why everyone hated him (Besides being annoying and once using a slur, for which he probably was lacking complete cultural understanding), but he was pretty young when he popped off. Not everyone changes as they age, but many people do. It’s very reasonable to say he is a different person now.

        I feel it’s reasonable to recognize the wealth he has collected, and to conclude he is not my ally.

        I don’t fucking care who it is, wealth hoarding causes immeasurable harm, not to mention requires a sociopathic mindset. So…yeah, I’m not even giving him a chance. I got better shit to waste my time on…

  Mixed results.

  He’s less annoying than he was covering gaming, he has some occasional hot takes, but I think overall he’s a positive influence.

  I’ve never been into his content but I really enjoyed his journey to build a better local LLM. Way more technical than I thought he was capable of.

  I never cared for any of his crap until last year when he deep dived into tech. The tech videos are good, he is a generally entertaining person. The dude has unlimited time and too much money, so he gets crazy deep in the weeds. It some ways I would say he is more competent that a lot of engineers. The self-hosted LLM videos are a good start.
