Can I get a tldr? I’m really out of the loop on this.
I read Madison’s post, but I’m not sure what’s going on with Linus other than that.
They have reviewed a GPU cooler from a company incorrectly, said it was trash and don’t buy it, refused to do the review correctly and then sold the prototype cooler at auction when they agreed to return it.
GN called them out on that and their massive QC problems, crunch and ethics.
I too like this explained to me.
Gamer's Nexus calls out LTT for some major oversights and failures, then the internet hate machine bandwagons on top and blows everything into a massive issue.
So many people are so worked up for something so incredibly insignificant.
Sexual assault isn't insignificant though.
Did you watch any of the videos? Linus straight up lied about reimbursing them. They didn’t reach out to them until after the first GN video was released.
