Seems like a lot of the early LTT crew were chaffing a bit under the LTT contract for a variety of reasons and opted to leave and start their own channels. I hope most of them succeed because honestly I always liked the other hosts on LTT far more than Linus who usually came off as more comic relief than actual tech news. As the old technical crew left I’ve found myself watching Linus Drop Tips very rarely.

Linus doesn’t appear to be a terrible person, but I wouldn’t call him a good person either.
Linus is very open about his anti-union and anti-labor rights views, and I’ve lost count how many times he has dropped quick anti-union propaganda lines in his videos.
After it came out that he also ran a knowingly operated hostile work environment, I unsubscribed and never looked back.

I dont think anyone has said or hinted anything like that. Its more like a natural progression where they worked there and gained the skills and experience that allowed them to pursue their own channel. When they work for LTT they learn a lot about how to be on camera and run a channel then down the line they can put those to use and make their own channel.
Alex was one of the best hosts and will be missed. Im not really into cars so I won’t be watching his new channel. Hopefully he can find sponsors to enable him to afford to make cool projects.
