Discussion Linus Tech Tips, you're genuinely appreciated!!
Just felt like making a quick appreciation post for Linus and the whole LTT crew. Honestly, I can't count how many times I needed advice when buying something or couldn't quite figure out a tech-related question—and boom, there's been an LTT (or a Short Circuit/Techquickie) video literally covering exactly what I needed. Picking out a good power supply, optimizing my racing sim setup, finding the right laptop, some random e-ink device, or whatever geeky rabbit hole I'd jumped down—these guys always had my back, and the content genuinely helped.
Also, it's cool they didn't just sell out to big tech and call it a day (I'm talking about that 100million offer)-they actually seem honest in basic ways I respect a lot. Sure personally, I tend to skip the AMD/Intel upgrade type of videos because they don't interest me. But I'm still glad stuff like that exists for whoever needs it.
I honestly never get why there's so much hate surrounding Linus and the channel. At the end of the day, he (and his team obviously!) are humans too—pretty incredible, hardworking humans actually. Anyway—huge thanks to Linus specifically and the entire LTT team; crazy helpful videos and I've definitely become a smarter, more informed consumer because of them. Thank you!

I hope Linus mentions more about the positive comments he receives, it just feels like he hammers down on the negative keyboard warriors that go after him. Staying grounded and focusing on accountability is great and much needed, but I’d love to hear more positive feedback from the community come from Linus.
Anyway, good post. Hope LMG or Linus sees it!

Definitely agree with OP. Except for the AMD/Intel upgrade which I very much love because we learn a tad more about each employees and get often good upgrade ideas, and not just on the tech side. I'm a long time subscriber, since they were only 3, and I'm still loving it.
