I know this is completely subjective, and his millions of subscribers tell me my opinion is far from ubiquitous, but he's also just straight up obnoxious to me. One of those people whose voice, demeanor, appearance, everything, just immediately turns me off.
Because he sounds like the stereotype of a Hot Topic-shopping turbonerd c.2002 ? Personally, I find it nostalgic, and even endearing.
I find his semi-rare discussions of 2000s tech nostalgic.
Yes sir, very Atomic. I miss that era.
Yeah it's kinda awesome to me too. I want to travel back in time and go to a lan party with 16 year old Linus.
It seems like he creates a fun environment at the workplace too. I bet they have awesome work parties.
I think he, personally, is largely entertainment. His company does produce some genuinely useful (as in, not total SEO spam) reviews etc. though.
Agreed. I always think of his Amazon go video where thinks he “stole” tampons that were actually pads.
