Unsubscribed from the LTT channel now. To be honest, I mainly followed it because I was amused this "tech influencer" borked his PC trying to install Pop_OS.
Linus Tech Tips
~~⚠️ De-clickbait-ify the youtube titles or your post will be removed!~~
~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~
~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~
~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~
This is an awful treatment of an employee and I don't know how many more cases like this are still existing at this moment. Fuck LTT, best I can do is step away from them and their content but if there is anything else I can do to get back at them let me know.
This is fucking awful, I'm actually shocked, and with other leaked testimonies from other former employees I don't think any of this is false. She doesn't have anything to profit from this. I'm glad my adblock has always been on and I use invidious because I would have felt sick knowing I supported these assholes at LTT. Anyways I unsubbed from anything and won't watch any more of their garbage.
I just saw this morning that LTT on YouTube are doing a live stream to "address the situation". They have their upper management trying to clean up the mess as best they can. It stinks of soulless corporate BS.
Jesus. That’s me unsubscribing.
What’s this about the OnlyFans though? Why does LTT have OnlyFans?
It was an April fools.
Still doesn't justify forcing employes to handle the platform if they can't protect them from being subjected to porn
Linus is a shit to his workers. This is entirely unsurprising.
This seems to be a problem with techbros in general but he always gave me similar vibes to John Carmack and he's been a shit his entire life.
I swear I tried. I got ten screenshots/links in and then killed myself. I'm posting from the grave. Long live Lemmy. Infinite Twitter screenshot support was my dying wish for the fedi-verse. Bless you.
Unless it's legally risky for her (I'm unfamiliar with Canadian law), I really hope she starts dropping names.
Some people really gotta be placed on the chopping block.
I shed a tear reading this thread.
Talk about psychological harassment. Holy shit.
Yeah LTT just lost me for sure. I'm never watching another one of their videos after this.
What the fuck!!! This was absolutely enraging to know. Linus is a piece of shit. I can't even comment on one specific thing as worse in the whole thread. Everything is fucked up about how they treated her.
fuck linus media group and fuck that motherfucker pretending to be a nice and friendly guy. How you treat your people behind closed doors is your character not the fake YouTube shit.
Tech bros being sexist, gropey scumbags
I’m shocked
Wtf this is really fucked if true.. this week's wan show is gonna be interesting
Really am out of the loop, never heard of these people. If true, I hope everyone associated with this shit goes down.
oh my god they released a tone-deaf apology video after this thread went up. it's an okay response to the GN stuff but hold the fucking video to address the horrifying allegations.
It has always been that he is a petty bourgeois shit especially after his take on unionization.
does ~~Anthony~~ (is that still her name?) still work there?
She’s Emily now and we haven’t seen her since she came out on camera.
Given the way the internet acts about trans people, that might be her choice, but given all this new info, who the hell knows?
Fucking roosterteeth all over again. 12 years there as a follower, 9 here. Dropped both forever, now. Never getting my view or my money again.
These tech/YouTube companies need to be fucking stacked union or employee owned businesses for me to give them money at this point. There's no other way I can trust them.
My only remaining sliver of hope is that Luke is not involved, and if he isn't, that floatplane can break off and go their own way.
