Why is he bad?

I believe people mostly get annoyed about him because it’s one of these channels the YouTube algorithm absolutely adores pushing to the top of search results and the home page, whilst (and probably because of) using the typical clickbaity thumbnails and titles, and most importantly, being one of these tech channels that optimized the content away from any work - he just opens up a device, fondles it for about 5 minutes, gives shallow opinions after barely testing anything, makes a “spontaneous joke” to the camera man who laughs and replies back, and then that’s the video. Rinse and repeat with any device that can be moderately popular - if no devices are popular today, just review a bunch of USB-C cables, or test if running your computer with tomatoes shoved inside the PSU makes it go faster or not.

I don’t like him because I feel like they just do very surface level stuff. Every one and again they do some good stuff. But for the most part it feels like they just take the easy stuff that will get views from brain dead people.

There wasn’t really much documentation of what he did but it looked like he may have dropped the .zip file onto the Ventoy drive.
But that’s also a noob mistake that I assume he wouldn’t make?
And hopefully he also tried Balena Etcher? Or Rufus?
Like, installing an OS is a fairly straightforward process.
I’d probably recommend Bazzite or ChimeraOS instead, regardless.

He forgot to open his mouth for the thumbnail.
