    I still mostly do think that

    Yeah, he hasn’t changed much. We know a little more about him and that changes things.

    FWIW, I think the allegations are “mostly unfounded”. I think he does work people a bit too hard, which I don’t REALLY care that much about. Him hiring a CEO to manage things he was shit at was probably the smartest thing he’s ever done.

    I’ve seen plenty of people complaining about going up to meet him and him going why are you important and why would I want to talk to you? Self admitting no friends. He’s probably either a narcissist or a sociopath in a personality suit.

    I stopped watching regularly after the 17th video of them installing shit in his Mc Mansion turning everything into a write-off. I was still listening to WAN show once in a while to catch up with tech news, even if he has stupid takes, it was still getting me the news. Once the GN stuff started , I just turned off the TV. He’s not wrong, but he’s an asshole and goes to great lengths to pick small details to be correct. Yes, he should have done a follow up when he dropped honey like he did when he dropped a VPN sponsor. Absolutely. OR he could have just responded to GN and said my lawyers said to leave it alone. Nobody really cared. But the back and forth whining, I don’t care to watch either of them anymore.

    Does anyone know any long-form tech news creators? I need something that’s about an hour long.

        TechAltar

        Thanks for that.

        I’ve having trouble stomaching GN these days, he’s as complicit with whining on the LTT crap as LTT is :)
