minus-squareTetsuo@jlai.lulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14arrow-down1·1 year agoI started boycotting LTT when he had his shit take about blocking ads being essentially stealing. Well I sure don’t steal Linus anymore that’s for sure. And I would be stealing Linus for sure considering the absolutely crazy amount of ads there is on this channel. Ever watched a WAN Show without any AdBlock or sponsor block ? That’s like 40% of the duration of the video if I include the LTT shop. It’s by far the channel on YT that I watched that pushes the most ads/sponsors. And I’m not even accounting for the YT ads themselves. Fuck LTT seriously, he can push as much ads as possible AND on top of that you have to watch all of them religiously. If that’s the price for his content, not worth it for me.
