TL:DW It's a 54:20 video of Fake Linus interviewing with Linus Torvalds. It goes over Linus's views on hardware choice, questions about Linux and several community questions.

The video is long, but it's a good listen.

Yeah, burden of proof is on me there.

If I felt like this was a genuine discussion, I might try to dig up clips of him talking about it, but at this point I feel like I’d just be talking to a wall.

    You probably would be, because again, I have seen him on multiple different videos making anti-union comments.

    But, depending on how vocally he was supportive of unions in any clips you showed, I could be persuaded to think better of him.

    But it would be insane for you to spend hours of your life digging them up for that purpose, which is good for you because I don't think they even exist, so I'm giving you an out to pretend that they do.

    11 hours of silence after this one lol, I guess even with proof they just didn't want to change their mind

    The playbook is generally to move the goalposts afterwards, but I’ve been surprised on Lemmy before so who knows? It takes a lot more energy to refute someone’s claims than it does to make them, so if a discussion is happening in bad faith it’s really not worth having.
