What's going on between Linus Media Group and Gamers Nexus? - eviltoast

I’ve been seeing a few posts about this, and judging by comments I’ve seen on posts related to this, there’s been bad sentiment building up with LMG for some time now that has culminated in this recent dispute. Anyone have a brief catch-up of events?

    I wouldn’t necessarily say that Linus’ response full of nonsense. It doesn’t contain what we would normally expect out of a response, but it does give us nuggets of insight into his mindset and philosophy toward the issue.

    My takeaway is that he’s not a bad person, but he’s well over his head in terms of managing his company. I think he knows that too, which is why he wants someone else to take the CEO position

      Yeah I did wonder isn’t that what Linus wanted to avoid with a new CEO?
