~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

The arrogance Linus displays has been ever increasing for the past year. I've never followed LTT close enough to truly know how he treats people, but it's seemed to me that he's a bit of an obnoxious knob and belittles others.
Absolutely but I think it's a bit more than that. Linus is just not relevant to his own company anymore, it's grown beyond him. Honestly it's kinda a mark of success. Linus has the personality of a small to medium social media creator and it's gotten him this far. Fortunately and unfortunately his company is no longer just a social media group, they're expanding and Linus isn't skilled or experienced at that; he's a social media star. Hiring someone else to be CEO was a good idea, time will tell if Tong was a good choice. Honestly what we're watching is LMG going through a growing pain and hopefully they're better for it and don't close shop.
