    For me it was visit to Louis Rossman https://youtube.com/watch?v=Shn7LdIrViQ

    Truth is, I didn’t know of Linus than, was only fan of Louis, but the way Linus was acting throughout that video was just unpleasant for me. I wouldn’t wanna be in Louis’ shoes than.

    Second was recently in that Linux challenge where, I was convinced, he was working hard to find that bug and show to everyone how bas he is. His complaint of Linux was that it allowed him to delete software Linux told him not to delete. Yeah… cool.

      Yes, the first one is familiar. I was kind of ok with it at the time but linus‘ condescending demeanor was kind of already obvious. I wrote it off at the time since I‘m autistic and also often get told I come across condescending. There you see why people need labels… we wouldn’t take it as personal if he was openly autistic (which I believe he is).

      I didnt see the linux challenge but I saw when he wanted to change his gaming pc. Was it that? I would love if was more positive towards open source and stuff. But he‘s on the other side of the fence I suppose.

      As someone who drives Linux on my gaming PC I hated his Linux videos. In all fairness I don’t really like either distro he tried but at the end of the day you hand the average person Linux mint and they will be fine imo

        My parents and girlfriend have no problem with Mint, if anything else it is easier than Winfows.

        I was convinced they gave their best to find what to break, and I get it they generated a lot of ‘engagement’.
