    No, it’s more just that LTT is basically what the Verge or any ther subpar tech outlet could be if it had actual writing talent and a hint of tech literacy.

    Emphasis on a hint of tech literacy.*

    Most people actually into the tech scene don’t really watch LTT that often, or find their videos severely lacking.

    tbf, LTT does do a better job of providing the lens of an average consumer, and Torvalds has always kept the idea that FOSS really should not disqualify anyone from participating. He is happy to have Linux used and shown off by megacorps or individuals alike.

    spoiler

    Linus Sebastian’s background is being a warehouse manager for NCIX, which is why he has a very blatant history of misrepresenting lots of products, software, technology, etc, just like your average consumer. He has gotten better over the years, but his content is not intended to provide intense detail, usually just a general overview, even if it includes testing.
