Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.

Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.

Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?

    ah, yes, the good old “we paid somebody to listen to our side of the story and they naturally found nothing wrong”.

    as I said, I didn’t post that link to convince you, because you’re not interested in considering it. the link is for everyone else. you can keep on believing whatever it is you want, but since you can’t edit my comment you don’t have any way to stop anyone else from considering the facts.

            hey, since you love “independent investigations”, what’s your take on Gamers Nexus catching LTT taking money for positive reviews of products? where the investigation for that, eh?

                you would know if you had been paying attention to our conversation.

                hey what about the time LTT auctioned off property that belonged to someone else without asking them, what’s your take on that?

                    it figures you would be OK with that, since you were OK with the sexual harassment. what’s a little theft when you’ve already dismissed unwanted sexual contact, amiright?

                    the reason I’m still talking with you is because I want to demonstrate to everyone one of the other controversies around LTT, that being the toxic fanbase that’s as rabid as Elon’s or Trump’s. and you played along fantastically, dutifully playing the part of fanboy for everyone to see. so for that, I thank you.

                    but now that you’ve done your job and played your role, I don’t have any further use for you, so ta-ta and farewell!
