Oh, does he still exist? I’ve blocked his channels, because he is simply not trustworthy. Everything he makes is at best infomercials. He’s a sellout.
Edit:
To those who downvote, really?
It’s been so obvious already years ago, that his reviews depend heavily on who advertises with him. He was also called out on it, and even ADMITTED it! (Apologized) Then said he would be more open in the future. Note he didn’t say he would change, only that he would hide it less! Fool me once…
Also the incident where he was a total asshole to a small cooler developer, and used the prototype wrongly, then wouldn’t deliver it back, despite that was the agreement, and it was a pretty expensive prototype to make for a small company, and then he auctioned it away!
He was revealed to have behaved like an asshole all the way. But go ahead and support him if you want.
I mean, even if he’s legit, I tried so hard to watch and I just am too old and too slow for all the three-second cuts. Are people’s attention spans truly this short now? It feels hypermanic.
Videos anywhere from 10 to 60 minutes at an anxiety inducing attention disorder riddled pace. Yet all the information can usually be boiled down to a 5 to 10 minute read. It makes no sense. But actually it does because these “infuencers” are modern day infomercial salesmen. The point is to keep you watching so eventually you’ll be persuaded to purchase product. Unfortunately I think probably anyone under maybe 25-30 has no clue wtf an infomercial is so the analogy is lost on those who could use it the most.

None of that ever happened. In fact he regularly declines sponsorships from various companies with ethical conflicts.

When you run a large company, this sort of dumb shit happens. He has since apologized, made the victim whole (or as whole as can be) and hired a CEO to handle logistics. You act like it was done maliciously.
It was so fucking obvious, how he was paid by companies to do some arbitrary shit, and later there would be a stellar review of their products.
You had to be blind to not see it. It was hidden advertising, and it’s even illegal! But I think he changed his approach to make it BARELY legal now.

Yeah after it became a scandal that hurt his business and reputation.
Not a long time lemmy user but as I’ve said here from time to time, it seems this inherited Reddit’s toxicity. People downvote here things just because - not because something doesn’t contribute to a discussion in any way whatsoever, but because they just don’t like it. It’s so stupid.
Take my posts in Colombia@lemmy.world - all of them have at most 0 net upvotes. Nobody there posts anything but me and nobody comments anything, but I do get downvotes because…?
TL;DR - don’t pay attention to downvotes here. You’re right, he’s an asshole. Though as with almost all social media you shouldn’t take no one, not even someone as influential as LTT, as a reputable source of information.
Edit: See how they just proved my point with this comment?

…what was “obvious”, exactly? You haven’t even explained yourself, much less provided any sort of citation.
