Tldr;

LMG has(had) a retarded non-compete. They called Alex and Andy into a meeting after they started Zip Tie Tuning and told them to delete the channel, give the channel to LMG, or get fired.

They're actually happy about being fired since they didn't have to quit, so now they get a nice severance package and other benefits.

Since they were fired LMG has supposedly revised their non-compete so people working at LMG are allowed to run their own projects as logn as it doesn't directly interfere with LMG's own projects.

I just glanced at that channel and it seems to be about cars? Why the fuck would that be an issue with LTT to fire them over?

>>106779373
They already spoke to employment lawyers and knew the non-compete was likely toothless.

It was SUPER broad in how it was written and probably totally unenforceable in Canada.

The reason LMG re-did the non-compete after they left is likely because LMG lawyers saw that it was totally worthless with how broadly it was written.

Also, the public backlash from taking down Zip Tie Tuning would've been bigger than the fallout from the GamersNexus drama.

Linus is huge nigger Jew.

>>106779387
Even worse, Alex and Andy had been trying to get LMG to let them run a car channel FOR LMG, but they kept kicking the can down the road and never committed to it.

Alex told LMG managers he was going to start a car channel in summer 2025 (he told them in January 2025) and offered LMG that they could be a part of that channel (the fuondation) but LMG said they weren't sure and needed to see more videos and viewing metrics to prove it would be successful before they'd agree to it. So alex and andy took that as more kicking the idea down the road and telling them to fuck off. So they did it themselves.

No, the non-compete LMG had was incredibly broad and totally unenforceable.

Feel free to say you can't go work for another tech channel on youtube that DOES directly compete with LMG, but you can't bar them from running ANY youtube channel.

It'd be like working for an IT payment services company and being told you can't work for ANY corporation after leaving. Even ones totally unrelated to IT payment services.

Well they DIDN'T enforce it, and have since changed it.

It doesn't take a fuckin' rocket surgeon to read between the lines here buddy.

Also, this is one of the most basic things in non-competes, they can't be broad enough that the person is LITERALLY incapable of finding another job with their skillset.

It is so nice seeing that Gamers Nexus irrevocably damaged LTT forever. We knew it did. That killshot will be remembered forever. LTT fagboys were the most annoying cunts on the planet and they've never been the same since. NOBODY respects anything LTT has to say regarding testing or computer hardware and it's awesome. Labs is a joke and a failure. Linus copes saying he doesn't care and is over it lmao he will never be over it. Steve broke that cunt's reputation forever. He had to pivot badminton and zoomer slop content.

>>106779659
Maybe they should keep that vague shit and keep firing their only good hosts then. Oh wait too late they already fired them because Linus hates competition.

>>106779698
gamernexus first and second videos really put a dent in ltt, but everything after that was example of supreme damage control by ltt which made gamernexus look like a teenage girl who was just dumped and couldnt get over it

steve went full emotional

>>106779706
he got himself fired because he wanted to?
Steve killed car channel on ltt
He wanted to do car channel

And now for weird 15 year olds who won't watch a video for the reasonable explanation (which they also won't comprehend) to say LTT is the devil for doing normal reasonable things.

>>106779712
Nah everything that followed by LTT is what killed them. The original LTT apology video was in such poor taste and did way way way worse damage than even Steve's original video. That's when they showed their true face and what they really think about their viewers when they were shilling the store in their supposed apology video.

>>106779712
That clip of the LTT guy saying other channels don't know how to do tests correctly really made Steve upset.

That's the issue with ADHD nerds. They only wanna do cool nerd shit and work on 1000 different things at the same time. They don't want regular jobs that's why they're working for a youtube channel.

It's a miracle Linus was able to hold onto them for as long as he did. Linus making LMG so corporate with defined roles and boring ass zoomer NPCs is creating a soulless merch slop store with shitty videos.

>>106779753
insane thing to say

>>106779786

The LTT guy memeing or saying that made steve upset?

Because objectively, it was that line that made steve upset.

As for the original LTT guy who said it, he seemed like he was mostly memeing, but steve took it personally.

What sucks is that the channel probably could have influenced hardware production of lesser known components but all these early YT adopters/nepobabies were uncreative slackers with no greater vision

His channel is going to be middling at best. Cars are so niche. He'll have a spike in viewership right now, but I bet in a few months he'll be lucky to get 50k views a video. It's going to be funny seeing him crawl back to Linus or beg some other channel to hire him

Whenever literally anything goes wrong at LTT they can just blame GN. Expanded too fast? GN's fault. Released shitty inaccurate videos? GN's fault. Views are down? GN's fault. Staff leaving? GN's fault. Sponsors quitting? GN's fault. Hiatusing Channels? GN's fault.

Steve gave Linus the biggest gift anyone could ever ask for - complete and total liability. LTT can do no wrong especially to the sycophants that bought the merch and still watch the videos, Linus is basically Jesus to them now

>>106779333
>Lovely abuse of non competes
He literally said they actively refused him having a car channel, so there was no competition there, but they still left him to either get fired or have the channel with zero monetization, sponsors or free car parts, so he picked to get fired and get paid big time.

I am begging people to stop watching videos about consumer products as a form of entertainment

LOL Dumbass Leaf countries
In good old USA he would have been fired and his channel seized and then sued for breach of contract

>>106779455
Steve did nothing wrong whatsoever, and what has been publicly known of Linus' character has been completely true all this time.
I have been saying for a long time that Linus' is an extremely mentally ill narcissist, and the steve debacle surely proved that to everyone on the internet who wasn't a fanboy, just by the mere fact that linus knowingly sent a text message to a phone number he knew steve didn't use and that he never even sent a message to or called him through.

LTT went no we aren't starting a car channel no you cannot work on the stuff you used to before actually you have to hand that car channel to us and if you do none of these things you are fired. They would lynch any other company for pulling this shit but LTT gets "They were still bros for giving them severance packages they have to give them by law"

As far has been publicly disclosed, Linus put in $225,000.

But we know from Framework's own disclosures that they've raised ~$45M through other sources.

I genuinely don’t understand Linus. He tries to present himself as this 'great and down-to-earth guy,' but in reality, he’s incredibly stingy and money-hungry, it’s honestly laughable.

Back during the GN drama, he wouldn’t even spend an extra $500 to properly review the Billet Labs cooling block. As a result, the work of a small company basically got shitted on. Keep in mind, he’s a multimillionaire—$500 is nothing to him.

Money really does corrupt people.

>>106782704

Jew of the East

>>106783238
It's simple
Alex and Andy pushed to make car videos on the channel
Then they created a way to make the car videos cost 10% of what they originally cost
Then they made about 50 car videos
Then LTT said they won't make a car channel
Then LTT said Alex and Andy can make a car channel but it will have no sponsors, no ads, no monetization, no free car parts and no LTT equipment
Then Alex and Andy made their own personal channel
Then LTT said delete the channel, give us the channel or get fired
Then they got fired

So that's the non-compete part - the only two people in the company that wanted to make car videos and figured out how to make them and make money off of them were then fired for creating car videos and making money off them

No, Jake has his own channel. Jake has an BMW repair shop so they can borrow his place for some stuff.

Everyone's leaving because there's no growth at LTT only expansion and expansion is just hiring more zoomers and shitting out more merch. Linus doesn't seem to get that you can't retain staff by "promoting" them into doing less of the things they liked to do when there is zero to gain from it since they will always have a 0% stake in the company.

The idea was to make LTT Labs approved shit have great influence in the industry and what products would sell. That way companies would have to kowtow to Linus' autistic whims. He put Asus' Head of Marketing in charge of his >testing lab. He may as well have been shitting in the face of everyone that would have believed that the LTT Labs Seal of Approval meant anything.

I find the reaction from the cult fascinating. I like to think they are all underage and not 30 year old man children.

How long until James and Reilly leave?

Linus isn't dumb all his new zoomer hires have youtube channels where they are autists in Linus just can't force them to close their channels down anymore like that DMS guy. He's still got his channel where he now runs damage control for Linus.


Linus isn't going anywhere he's not a dumb jew he's just adapting to the new youtube and signing up zoomers to make shit for LTT - he just doesn't get fullly to own their souls now. If you can build a following around a specific tech niche, show you can host and grow an audience and are willing to put up with Linus' autism, LTT will come knocking and you will have a ticket to a 16 million+ youtube audience, millions more views and millions more people knowing your name.

It's split between leaving that as something for individual states to legislate, or for the longest time a large enough swath of the working populace had enough leverage that companies had to offer decent benefits in order to attract talent. But the squeeze for more profit in order to appease retired stock holders has caused the latter to break down in recent years.

Right but he fucked up the execution. Gary was absolutely the right guy given he ran Anandtech years before but he effectively had no power to affect change in Labs to a significant degree and rightfully threw his hands in the air and left after being accused of not working hard enough despite being the guy entering first and leaving last in Labs from what I have read online. Linus blew their credibility when Labs was nowhere ready yet.

Narcissism, and basically thinking that they taught everything needed to have a profitable channel, so they find it really bad for their workers to be profiting off their acquired knowledge.

Most of the times they get lent cars and bikes for a review for like a couple hours or so, but they have to shill the dealer that lent the thing.

Not sure how you saw this as the message.

Alex is clearly casting some shit on the corporate side of LMG and saying they got ass blasted by steve and he understands how that hurt them both short and long term.

He then personally thanked linus, and expressed how glad he was to be fired instead of being forced to quit, since by law in BC he gets like 12-15 weeks of severance pay.

He in no way at any point in the video said or even implied steve "almost killed his dream".

What kind of NDA did Linus had his wife's CCP goons force them to sign?

>>106779455
I'm watching this right fucking now and I didn't expect the continuation of the GN LTT drama KINO.

I'm inclined to believe that Steve had real and valid bones to pick with Linus, like the Backpack warranty fiasco, where Linus were objectively and provably wrong and retarded and to this day fails to comprehend why exactly, despite personally saying stuff like
>guys, you should understand that AMD is a company and not your friend
numerous times.
That and similar precedents likely caused the relationship to fall off between the two, and I would instantly believe that Linus handled all attempts to make amends like an utter retard.
I actually respect the guy quite a bit, but he CAN'T handle criticism. I have watched enough WAN Show episodes to know that for a fact.

Speculating further, I can see that the two falling out and the virtually guaranteed mishandling of the aftermath by Linus has likely resulted in Steve building quite a bit of negative prejudice against the guy as well as reevaluating his past interactions with him through this new lens.
I don't think Linus is evil or even an asshole, but he can act retarded about stupidest things and with what Louis had to add to the conversation, I don't think Steve had any real need to lie or blow out things out of proportions.

I do believe him when he's saying he had his share a shitty interactions with Linus, it's just he was mostly disregarding them until he didn't.
The only thing that is still puzzling to me is the whole
>I'm willing to have a conversation IF LUKE IS THERE
That one felt as if Steve was either losing his mind OR he wasn't saying enough about his experiences.
The line sounded like she was unironically afraid for his life were he to have a private talk with Linus.

why are they still obsessed with gamers nexus? that video was like 2.5 years ago and was legitimate criticism

they took down their "our team" page months ago so people wouldn't see the rats fleeing the ship https://linusmediagroup.com/our-team

>>106783780
Wasn't aware of that drama so I checked out the LTT reddit thread about it.

Holy shit can LTT do ANY wrong in their eyes? IT was full on narcissist prayer shit
>they didn't copy them so why are they mad
>ok they copied them but LTT isn't in all of ifixit's markets
>ok they are in ifixit's majority market but it's not like ifixit invented the screwdriver

>>106787935
Because Linus is still obsessed with him
Linus really tried to fuck GN over earlier this year by claiming Steve should have a degree in journalism before attempting to criticize him. Linus is a retarded faggot and those parasocial retards on the subreddit adore him how can they not after giving him thousands of dollars for shitty merch. Steve will forever be the ultimate evil and responsible for LTT faggot fanboys being seen as nothing but retards by everyone

>>106783780
To be fair, that snipe did come from nowhere. Is ifixit the only company allowed to make screwdrivers now?

I don't usually watch their stuff, but I watched their recent iPhone Air teardown video. Midway through they start shouting about their new collab with Jerryrigeverything and please buy or new pack which comes with his knife!!

I don't know why they have a hateboner for LTT while also trying to buddy up to JRE's fanbase. They're supposed to be a repair and spare parts company, why are they expanding into youtube drama?

>>106779219
>3 million subscribers
>had the vibe of a startup
nigga what

>>106788482
You know GN admitted fault there by removing the claim that they follow "journalistic standards", now instead claiming their follow "their own highest standards", right?

>>106788616
their standards are probably higher than MSM outlets

>>106788616
to be fair real journalistic standards were last seen in the 1960s. nobody follows that shit anymore, everything is rage bait and propaganda. GN happens to be good at taking a minor mistake and dedicating a 2 hour video to sinking the company because that’s where they get most of their views.

Lots of jobs needed
Looks like an actual HR department has become necessary
No more "Just come to me and Yvonne and let's have a chat"

>>106788616
Journalistic standards like Bloomberg's? lol
LTT is a sinking ship

>>106788651
They still exist. It's just usually those journalists end up mysteriously missing or something like that.

>>106787756
The line sounded like she was unironically afraid for his life were he to have a private talk with Linus.

Linus is the king of stupid asshole hot takes without thinking
Watch the WAN Show if you want to see Luke pull Linus back from the precipice and you can get why someone would want him there for a serious talk.

>Linus fucked up multiple times with the Billet Labs situation
>Linus rushed videos which caused numerous errors
>Linus handled errors and corrections like a retard (including prioritizing revenue over correcting)
>Linus's "trust me bro" warranty situation was retarded
>Linus was retarded to think it's not "journalistic" to criticize people you've worked with in the past
what exactly was GN wrong about?

Gamers Nexus apparently did so much damage to LTT and they are still seething about it nearly 3 years later.

And the only thing Steve did was point out things LTT actually did.

Women suck the soul out of men. Single men are happy with little, work on projects out of passion.

Married men become greedy, because their wife wants infinite things. The children "need" things he can't say no to. Now he needs to spend all his time working and if he takes time to continue his passion projects, he better make money off them. Women makes men waste money, too. She wants a $50 dinner, you'll eat a $50 dinner too. She spends $5000 on some useless crap, are you gonna let her empty your accounts on her own? No, you'll buy some stupid shit too.

And don't think about making less money or asking her to spend less, she'll leave you (and take at least half of your money too).

>>106783419
>married Sarah
they got married? didn't see that coming

>>106788763
Linus and LTT employees admitted, ON CAMERA, that they were rushing videos and it resulted in putting out subpar videos, so they needed to pull back and focus on that.

But it's "the Gamers Nexus debacle" and not "we were stretched too thin" for this sycophant retards. They just can't accept ownership of any mistake ever.

Why don't we look at what LTT published this week!

>>106783591
for it to be 2 to 5 times a day you must cum very quick lol

>>106788752
Nothing, but you've seen the state of LTT/LMG's diehard fans. Alex doesn't want to piss them off and limit his potential audience. He's going from doing one niche Youtube channel, to a different niche Youtube channel, and he doesn't know how many of his fans are fans of his, and how many were just fans of him being on LTT. So as far as the startup PR press release, he sucks Linus off a little bit, but to prevent the uncomfortable questions of, "Why didn't Linus let you do car videos when you and Andy were the only ones who cared about doing car videos?" he throws GN under the bus.

>>106788811
He threw both GN and LMG under the bus, and frankly LMG was the prime target.

He uses GN as a primary reason for certain decisions LMG made, but ultimately he blames LMG in the video.

If you think he was covering for LMG by bringing up GN, I really think you're the biased one here.

>>106788800
Can't believe people watch this shit

That VR headset video was interesting. I didn't know Quake had what amounts to a native VR port that long ago. The problem with the channel now is that all of his halfway decent on-camera talent is gone. Reilly and James are still around, but they only do the tech news.

>>106788800
LTT's quality is so bad now
Linus himself has said VR and 3D Printing content performs like ass so I dunno how that ancient 90s VR video even got approved

But they did though.

>>106788828
He definitely handled LMG with kid gloves in the video. Even despite bringing up the creative stifling, the overreach of the non-compete contract, and the ultimate attempt to hijack his fledgling channel outright, the thesis of the video was still, "It was really nice of them to let us go. No seriously, guys, they did a good thing." Whereas his point with GN was, "It's Steve's fault I couldn't do car videos on LMG."

>>106788828
>threw LMG under the bus
How does it feel to be autistic?

>>106788857
haha, im speaking from experience.

Linus mentioned this for 1 minute saying "creative people need creative outlets"
lol zero mention of trying to hijack or delete their channel

It's not like the old days where leaving LTT meant drowning in obscurity. He's not losing editors or background staff he's losing his main most popular hosts and replacing them with retards.

"Videos are only as good as the person that hosts them" Until he fixes that shit is over

>>106785790
there was a study that men enjoy sex more from mentally ill women and its probably because they fuck REALLY good and makes your balls dry

It's kind of funny that Gary was also into cars.

Yeah, it's kind of just as shit. The shit niche is already taken lol. He should be a normier L1Techs.
>>106780489
>>106784436
I agree.

>>106788878
Lol he even blamed LMG for that though, he said he understood it at the time, but clearly made it seem like they were morons, and offered to let them back in on the car channel in Jan 2025 when he told LMG he wanted to make a car channel and they were free to join them. He then said again LMG waffled like retards so he said fuck it.

I can't in any reality see how that's throwing GN under the bus.

He literally only says the GN stuff made LMG be more corporate, he didn't blame GN for that and only said it was the impetus for the shift in his LMG operated. He still 100% lays the blame on LMG in his video, if you HONESTLY see that and think he's throwing GN under the bus I really don't think you're unbiased in your opinion.

You're just seemingly trying to find any way you can to say Alex shit in GN when he basically doesn't shit on GN at all and shits on LMG multiple times throughout the video.


I genuinely have to wonder, are we even watching the same video? What the fuck are you smoking?

>>106789054
>his LMG operated
How LMG operated

>>106787249
whos that foid on the right?

>linus had a bunch of problems but GN didn't hit on any of them
so alex is a retarded faggot too. RIP

>>106789583
Why didn't you watch the video?

It's painfully obvious you basedboy cucks are just trying to stir up shit without having actually watched the video.

Or you're ACTUALLY retarded and can't understand how Alex was shitting on LMG, not GN.

>>106789628
it's a direct quote from the video, retard

he wasn't shitting on lmg. his complaints about lmg
>lmg got too big and it wasn't fun anymore
his complaints about gn are
>they made a bunch of bullshit criticisms and caused a bunch of us to get death threats
you may be autistic if you think that is "shitting on" lmg

>>106789662
He shits on LMG the entire video.

Even saying they're glad they got fired is a subtle dig at LMG cause their non-compete was 100% dogshit worthless and they knew it.

>>106789694
no he doesnt you fucking retard, he thanks linus like 5 times in the video

>>106789770
it's called being professionally polite.

He was being somewhat facetious.

He very obviously wanted to stay at LMG which is why he tried to argue for the car content internally, then told them he was doing to himself and invited them to join him, and then finally breaking off and doing it with Andy themselves.

He very clearly is shitting on LMG by outlaying how many times they fucked up and prevented them from doing what they were going to do anyway.

Yes, he's glad he was fired because he GENUINELY got a decent bit of $$ because of it. But he also would've been happy to stay with LMG if they had agreed to start doing the car content internally like he originally asked for.

The fact he lays it all out in public IS SHITTING ON LMG.

If you can't see how he's being professional WHILE shoving them under the bus in that video, I have to wonder are you retarded or something?

jesus christ these redditposting retards are dumb as fuck

pierbi

>>106780565
no, it's even worse than that
they told him if he wanted the channel it had to be unmonetized and take no sponsors and he actually agreed to that
then the channel did well and LMG said to give them the channel or get fired

>>106790162
Not quite. They agreed to make that worthless channel but never actually did. They just launched zip tie tuning instead and it took off basically immediately. Seething LTT then demanded they give up ZTT and hand it over to LTT or be fired.

>>106790053

with all these new channels maybe we can finally get some actual tech coverage again

>Steve did nothing wrong whatsoever
he couldn't handled the resulting drama better. his case took a hit when he got too heated in his reply while talking about impartiality.

>>106780048
Of course it won't work. That's why he has a paypigtreon just like Jake. Just like Tranthony. Lmao!

>>106783299
>figured out how to make them and make money off of them
>*paypigtreon required
Lmao. This is proof LMG is imploding. They'd rather risk paypigtreon than having wages.
