CONCLUSION: I will stop watching them since all of these alligations and “false?” hardware testing makes me not wanna support them. Even if most of them aren’t true, i don’t want to risk it

ive heard some mixed things about ltt so i want to know if theyre actually bad or not

and im not watching them for linux help, i just like the content, but i also dont want to support a bad person

    Interesting that the video you reference, Linus actually admit that he made mistakes in the review 4 years back.
    Also interesting how he has turned 180° on freaking almost every single issue on Linux vs. Windows.
    The reason for that of course is that he was basically wrong about everything he thought he knew about Linux.
    Also interesting that he now consider freedom a feature, something he completely failed to understand previously, for instance when Skyrim was supposed to have paid mods.
    Where Linus completely failed to understand the criticism of that.

    IMO he is still a moron, but a slightly better informed moron.
    The reason he was berated was because he was a moron, it is not our job of any community to embrace him and be nice to him when he is spreading basic falsehoods and misunderstandings.
