Linus literally doesn't give a fuck if he starves. Reminder that Linus left Luke to die on a mountain!
>>106785429and why should he? he is an ex-employee
>>106785457Fired with no just cause
Alex literally admits that Gamersnexus BTFO'd their shitty corpocuck company so hard that they. Live by the corporate drip seed, die by the corporate drip seed. I'd almost feel bad if they weren't admitted total sellout shills that don't give a fuck about the tech community
>>106785467you are making me defend that retard and his shitass companyif i had a company that made a popular video editing app and an employee made a similar app using the knowledge and even code he gained from my company, i'd also fire him
>>106785650Should have paid them more faggot. Tough break now you have to compete lololol get fucked loser.
>>106785650that's what the guy in picrel did? i've only seen a few of his videos from like 5 years ago but he seemed too beta to pull that off
>i will give you a job as a youtuber and many opportunities to grow in our company and teach you the secrets of the trade over many years but you cannot make a youtube channel as these are industry secrets, sign here>ok>*proceeds to make a youtube channel after learning the industry secrets*>you're fired>FUCK YOU
>>106785650There are a lot of industries where this is common practice, lots of people who work in a trade will end up leaving the company that taught them everything to become self employed. It's a bit silly to say content creation is this sacred cow that hasn't already been figured out to a science.
>>106785839Close.>dude loves cars>convinced Linus to make car videos>did well for a bit but expensive as hell so needed sponsors>GN dropped their bomb>LTT moved away from the car videos>guy decides "I'll make my own car channel", allegedly gave LTT a chance to be "part" of it, they declined>LTT non-compete says lol lmao, give us the channel, delete the channel, or get firedYou could argue the writing and camera work was knowledge gained from LTT, and the car channel was still technically competing with them as they did release car videos a few times. That said, everyone seems to be in agreement that the non-compete was too broad and had no chance in court.
>>106785914>>106785860>>106785872>>106785650Except in this case LTT dies because the 100 man shop was being carried by Alex and Andy. Good going fucktards
