    This is the issue this is all about. Linus doesn’t care about quality. Just about extra income. Clickbait thumbnails, rushed content that comes in quantity rather than quality, refusal to even invest 500 Dollar into redoing a utterly mistake of the video, no care to auction of stuff that don’t belong to them - this is all coming from the same place, and which is why the thumbnails and titles are so bad. They are an indicator of the rest.
