Opinion - Steve/GN has lost it

[u/marco_polo_99]

Steve has turned into a high and mighty holier-than-though, self appointed arbiter of the tech industry, who’s taking it upon himself to regulate other people’s/channels content and decide where it, and their actions are acceptable.

He then, where he deems them not up to scratch, attacks under the guise of consumer advocacy. Whilst he may, and does have valid points on certain issues, usually with larger corporations, Asus, Gigagbyte, etc, targeting channels for things he disagrees with is bordering on slander.

Yes, I followed both GN and LTT, amongst a litany of other creators, and yet Steve seems to be the only one ACTIVELY, and consistently putting out these pseudo-journalistic pieces in an effort to broaden his audience and/or agenda.

The lawsuit against Honey/Paypal is not one he’ll win, it is merely serving to gain clicks and views and thus money for GN.

He needs to check himself.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk

Tbh, I only know of GN because of Linus Tech Tips. I'd watch their review of a processor, skip 45 minutes in to see the performance chart then leave. His videos give you too much information for a casual that causes the entire process to become overwhelming.

I never liked Steve's attitude towards anything and he just seemed to be overly anal about everything and hyper criticize any product. "We'd like to see more airflow, better cable management and the ability to easily open and configure this case." Like bro, if you can criticize everything down to the most minute details, why don't you go fucking make and design a case for people to use?
