I fell off of Linus yeeeeeeeeears ago when him and Luke got to talking about harassment in League of Legends. Luke gave sensible advice, mute everyone, take breaks. Linus then rudely interjected “Or just get better”.
Sure getting better at league will reduce some harassment, but not all, and the way Linus interrupted Luke with that line left me with a subtext of, “People only flame you if you are bad, if you are bad it is your responsibility to git gud, if you are getting upset that people are flaming you, you’re a stupid ass bitch”
That made me feel like Linus wasn’t this happy-go-lucky tech enthusiast, but just another overconfident ego-driven asshole. Recent events are giving me some nice confirmation bias. Linus is now a money enthusiast, not a tech enthusiast anymore.
My anecdote is totally silly, I know, but cracks in Linus’ character can be seen outside of his reviews I suppose.
