Linus is so damn insufferable, why does anyone pay any attention to him?

To be honest, while he would be annoying if I watched 10 of his videos in a row, I don’t understand why hés so hated on Lemmy.

He’s been accused of, admitted to, and proven that he is paid off and goes more for entertainment/engagement than actual reviews of products. There are thousands of tech reviewers on YouTube doing honest work, I’ll always downvote the openly dishonest ones

I hate his style of content that is loud and comes off like one huge infomercial, and is the biggest stereotype of the whole smash like, subscribe, patreon, annoying thumbails, buy my merch among youtubers. He’s the poster child when it comes to tech for that.
And given that lemmy tends to be into tech, whether they want to or not his content is something that gets more shoved on them than other content creators. Like this submission for instance.
Which why worse content creators in other fields like streamers or whatever don’t get the same attention, since those are something fans of streamers are more likely to be exposed to. So among streamer fans or model kit fans or cars they may have their own “Linus” creator that keeps being shoved on them and populating search results unless they block the channel.

I wasn’t trying to pay attention, but I recently noticed that their team is the second highest team on folding@home, so at least there’s that.

They have been in the top 10 for years as far as I know. While it’s commendable it does not change the fact that linus is a self aggrandizing shit.

He could just eat a whole cake if he wants to. He’s an adult.

He’s probably right, the contrast with the PS5 pro for a similar price will be apt even if most consumers might not notice immediately.

What? He guesses at the price, and if he’s wrong then he’ll eat a cake? Reward himself for being wrong? Is that it?

It’s so terrible that one of his employees volunteered to throw themselves on the proverbial grenade and help him eat the cake.

Oh no, if I’m wrong, I’ll do a muckbang and get tons of views from fetishists…
