Mostly unsubstantiated rumors passed around about why certain employees no longer work there. Linus has on multiple occasions admitted he was doing everything for the first time and he didn't always get everything right as the company transitioned from some dudes in a house to a legitimate company.

Some don't like him because of his opinions on things (most of the apple fanboys don't like him because he regularly shits on apple and iPhones).

Some people don't like him because of drama with other YouTubers (mostly Steve from gamers nexus).

As someone who used to watch him daily back when it was just him and Luke doing stupid shit in a regular house and doesn't really watch him much anymore I don't think Linus is an outright bad person. All of us are flawed in many ways. He seems like mostly a good guy and those who have met with him and worked with him that I have met or talked to only ever had nice things to say about him.

🤷‍♂️

Mostly because he is a YouTube entertainer, and not necessarily an tech expert. He got some shitstorm a while ago because of the bad treatment of some of his staff, and other YouTubers called him out because his benchmarks where wrong multiple times, but he would never revisit and correct them. Some stuff members said this was impossible for them to to accurate testing and reviews because of the high pressure to churn out new videos.

Personally I get the vibe that he is nice and entertaining in front of the camera, but might be a less chill person as your boss.

He's an immature man-child.

He does not handle being told he's wrong very well. Granted, the people he surround himself with are no different. LTT was promoting take science products (aka scams) and when got called out on it by an actual scientist, lashed out.

The warranty for his (I think it was a) backpack, was trust me bro.

Until it was constantly complained about in comment sections, he would "joke" (as the then CEO) of firing people.

He broke his Linux system by failing to read the warning on the screen and then blamed Linux.

Or Mint. I use Mint because it works with minimal hassle.

Ah, but primary recountings aren't sources, you first need to write an article or book about it (according to Wikipedia sometimes)

Cause Debian is an out of date rock.

If you need a rock it's good

But it's still a rock for better or worse and rocks are a pain in the ass to do anything with that isn't just having it sit there.

Oh, I know I'm unhappy lol Tbf though, Lemmy/The fediverse has been MUCH better then ol rage book and xitter

Is that some meme? My system has been rock solid for years.

I have Arch and I've been running it for 4 years with no problems. Not even a crash.

Arch breaks less frequently then Ubuntu at this point... Honestly I would put arch in the top 3 most stable and unbreaking options.

You have to go out of your way to break arch nowadays. The catch 22 is arch will happily allow you to do that. But it sure won't do it, it self.

Lol wut? I've been running the same garuda arch install for over 9 months without a single issue.
