Other than the stuff already mentioned here, people (probably fairly accurately) thought Linus was a salesman douche with no real knowledge of computers back in the NCIX days.
It was partially true, he was basically a warehouse manager who happened to get lucky making a successful youtube channel which he turned into his own media business after NCIX died.
But that’s what the key term is. It’s Linus Media Group. Their top goal is to create content that generates views for revenue, and not content that might be useful or takes a lot of effort to do.
Which is why you will almost never see any heavy IT people watching his videos. There are so many examples of people running entire data centers in their house better than LMG could do with actual budget, server space, and hardware. They used to use windows server for everything because they didn’t have anyone who knew linux lol.
Of course their biggest scandal was rushing content and not being diligent with their benchmarks. I honestly never had the impression that they were really the professionals or experts they present themselves to be.
That being said, I think if you view their videos more as entertainment and an entry level content into the IT world for people who otherwise wouldn’t be interested, their content is acceptable.
I wouldn’t watch their videos expecting to learn anything or trusting their expertise/benchmarks, but just for the vibes. Luckily we have real experts like tech jesus to keep them in check. I also think people who actually seek to learn something will eventually figure out LTT ain’t it.
LTT is tech content like Donut media is Automotive content. It’s edutainment at most.
I find it funny the amount of hate that LTT gets, it’s niche entertainment and you can watch it absolutely free anywhere in the world and Linus rejected a 9 figure sum to keep ownership of something he built, say that out loud… “He turned down over $100,000,000.” Yes they flog merch and have floatplane and all that bullshit but that’s how they stay independent.
You can take Donut and Motortrend as examples of how it all goes to shit. MT were YT only, then moved to their own paid streaming platform, then sold out to a network and told all their international subscribers to kick rocks because the network deal was more money.
Or the Donut route, where you get bought by venture capital who suck all the fun out of the job, try to monetise everything and wind up having all the talent leave and go start their own channels because they took a fun job and just made it a job.
Windows server is notoriously terrible compared to Linux on a server. Most tech people (even those who happily run Windows on their desktops) know this.
The parent’s comment isn’t about “Windows bad” or “this is the year of the Linux desktop” it’s about a group of people cosplaying as tech wizards when they use laughably bad software to run their business because they lack technical expertise.

Obviously a Windows bad. Nothing else expected.
Because obviously this is the year of Linux desktop.
But yes, Windows sometimes is annoying. But so is Linux and it’s ton of distros.
Doesnt prevent me from using best of both worlds.
Tell me you haven’t worked with servers without telling me you haven’t worked with servers.
I do and had a very annoying evening last weeks friday.

buddy, even Microsoft doesn’t use windows on their servers. https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux
