I’m out of the loop on this. Can anyone ELI5 what’s going on with LTT? Don’t have time to watch this long video before work.

Here’s a link for an overview of the whole GamersNexus v LTT thing so far: knowyourmeme.com/…/gamers-nexus-vs-linus-tech-tip…

This is LTT’s response, basically saying: we’ll do better with our labs data / corrections, we’ll fix our relationship w/ Billet Labs, and we’ll take a couple days off from uploads to get our house in order

problem is, one of their ex employee’ Madison posted some serious allegations on LTT’s work environment 2-3 hours before they uploaded and they haven’t addressed that at all.

Was the poor work environment just that they had a quota for videos and it was higher than Madison could get done without feeling stressed out? Or is there more to it?

you can read the whole twitter/x thread here: threadreaderapp.com/…/1691693740254228741.html

but TLDR is:

• Over work
• Mentally draining/abusive workplace
• harassment
• (maybe intentionally) bad management practices
• lack of any signs of improvement

I really don’t know how much of this I can believe. It starts out fairly level headed but becomes increasingly provocative and deranged sounding.

My impression is this person has malicious intent. They are evidently mentally unwell; cutting yourself for a day off work is extreme.

I’m sure there is some truth in here, but I’m not going to dig for it when I just outright disbelieve some of the later statements.
