Linus Sebastian with his Linus Media Group and Linus Tech Tips and other channels on YouTube (I will allow all channels edited by Linus to remain under the LTT name) is in serious trouble. The shackled Canadian received a thorough smack earlier this week from the so-called Jesus of Technology, chief spokesperson for Gamers Nexus, Steve Burke.
Steve had analyzed a number of LTT videos, focusing on one recent video where LTT had received a liquid cooler designed for an RTX 3090 Ti video card and Linus was trying to fit it onto an RTX 4090 video card. Of course, the cooling did not fit, Linus was not satisfied, and then this cooler, which is actually a prototype, was also auctioned without the manufacturer’s permission.
After Steve’s video, other YouTube channels also managed to catch Linus and LTT, but now some very unpleasant information has appeared, which was previously at least partially hidden, because Linus was considered a good boy among technology reviewers.
Former LTT employee Madison Suop has also come up with loud statements and insults. She had previously kept quiet because Linus’ public image had been very positive, and Linus’ fans would have eaten her up without a grain of salt.
To stop the speculation and DM’s I am receiving.
I chose to quit my role at LTT because it, and the working environment I was facing, were ruining my mental health.The number of daily items the Social media role at the time was expected to fill was incredibly high.

It should be noted here that Linuss has come up with a kind of apology for the company’s internal processes, but this video looks unnatural, it is very difficult to watch and perceive. Linus and LTT have not yet publicly explained anything about Madison’s statements.
It is difficult to predict how all this will develop further. It’s one thing to have an average non-serious attitude towards reviews, numbers in your videos and submitted samples, it’s quite another thing to insults about unacceptable disorder in the workplace, and that’s putting it mildly.
