Linus is just insufferable. Life has been great with his channels blocked for years and not paying a cent of attention to him. Everyone should try it.

Yeah; I only ever see his content when the drama spills into other channels now.

I miss the days of small-time LTT doing silly projects like whole-room water cooling. :/

To me LLT is basically best when it is somewhat similar to old Top Gear, where they do silly projects (which increased in scope with the companies growth).

For actual reviews on the other hand I'd never really trust them and would always look to other sources like GN or Hardware Unboxed (who e.g. seem to do great monitor reviews) for example.

But I've also scaled back watching the channel to maybe looking at it once or twice in the last year.

Same. I feel like once Luke started taking more of a back seat content-wise and letting Linus get in front of the camera by himself more is when things started going downhill

I have a funny feeling Luke was the only one willing to talk at Linus behind the scenes to control some of Linus's worse impulses.. and once Luke was gone and having to focus on float plane..
