If you go the video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsjHMzGl-VY. You will see it's gone. So Youtube being Youtube.

Here's a Odysee mirror of the video, https://odysee.com/@jopec:7/linus-tech-tips-degoogle-your-life-part-2-adfree-youtube:0.

Not initially. Linus mouthed off as he likes to do on his own podcast before eating crow after GN reinforced their claims.

Yeah, I don't like Linus all that much but I do enjoy LTT's content overall. He tends to drastically and publicly overreact to literally any criticism, and then the rest of the team gets involved and he walks it back. Whether they legitimately change his mind or just convince him he's gotta look like he's changed his mind I have no clue.

My favorite instances of Linus are when he's an absolute idiot on the WAN show and we just get to see Luke's reaction live. The hard-r thing was absolutely hilarious.

Yeah Luke's look of "oh no bro, stop" is pretty much a staple of the WAN show.

but I do enjoy LTT's content overall.

I used to as well, up until the storage server video and their Linux challenge.

I lost every shred of respect and interest after Linus showed his true colours during the Billet Labs nonsense.
