And why did you stop watching them?

    LTT and their other channels. I only watch because of Emily/Anthony. Now that she’s not active in videos anymore, I just lost interest and realised that Linus and those two hosts of Techquickie annoys the hell out of me.

      I actually still like some LTT videos. I just find the thumbnails off-putting … so unless the topic interests me I don’t typically watch anymore.

      I really enjoyed the Emily/Anthony bits too.

          +1 for DeArrow, sometimes I reveal the original just to see how atrocious the channel will be with clickbait thumbnails.

      Anthony was great and so full of super geeky information, hopefully Emily will make an appearance at some point but i fully understand if she doesn’t. Internet can be a ruthless place.

      I always found the fact that he thinks Nebula is not a viable business and only exists to sell out and get a big payoff says a lot about Linus and his way of thinking.

      I fell off LTT once I fell into his massive pile of rich people problems videos. Like, there was one where he was complaining because his WiFi didn’t reach to the gate of his mansion.

      Yeah, tech quickie is full of great info but they are just trying wayyyyy too hard to be fun and quirky.

      Wait, Anthony is Emily now? I guess I missed that one. Anyways, everyone seems to talk about them in the past tense which is concerning. Are they no longer doing videos?

      Anthony was great, always loved how in depth they were on whatever tech they were talking about.

      I like Jake’s videos on networking too. I love how nonchalant he is when it comes to certain things that would just never fly where I work. Makes for good entertainment.

      Other than them, I like tech linked and game linked to stay up to date on tech and game news.

      i still enjoy some of them every once in a while, for entertainment value and the crazy stuff they do.

      but that whole overworking and treating his workers like shit debacle turned me off the channel by quite a lot.
