Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.
Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.
Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?
Funny you should bring up touching people in that context, because sexual harassment is the reason LTT stopped producing videos for awhile.

Of course, that article also covers the Gamers Nexus investigation into LTT taking money to give biased reviews.
I would keep going, but we both know you aren’t going to read or watch those videos, so this comment is more for the other people who might be curious about it. And honestly I think your behavior makes the arguments against LTT look better, for no other reason than assholes tend to be followed by smaller, less famous assholes.

ah, yes, the good old “we paid somebody to listen to our side of the story and they naturally found nothing wrong”.
as I said, I didn’t post that link to convince you, because you’re not interested in considering it. the link is for everyone else. you can keep on believing whatever it is you want, but since you can’t edit my comment you don’t have any way to stop anyone else from considering the facts.

it’s not independent if the guilty party pays for it. that’s called a “conflict of interest”.

hey, since you love “independent investigations”, what’s your take on Gamers Nexus catching LTT taking money for positive reviews of products? where the investigation for that, eh?
deleted by creator
you would know if you had been paying attention to our conversation.
hey what about the time LTT auctioned off property that belonged to someone else without asking them, what’s your take on that?
