He chose his channel's name to be deliberately confusing.

edit: reading the other comments in this thread, he sucks.

Linus Torvalds is super well known for creating Linux. Linux is heavily used in "tech". Linus is not a common name globally.

Personally, I had expected that "Linux Tech Tips" was Linux Torvalds giving Linux tech tips. Clearly, I have no bothered to read any of them.

Ok well that's kind of your own fault I mean while Linus Torvalds is well known in the Linux and super techy (super super techy) community he is not well known to most people I know about Linus tech tips before Torvalds. That might be because I'm 19 right now and had access to YouTube at a younger age but I personally never found it confusing as it's just the guy's name and he does tech videos.
