~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~
~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~
~~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...)~~
I completely understand why others are unsubbing, but I enjoy the content and want to see how the new CEO ends up handling all of this. Threads like this seem to be inviting everyone to post about how they never liked LTT in the first place, but I wanted to write this down because I'm sure I'm not the only one who actually enjoyed the content and the cool technology and unique solutions they found when building PCs and cooling them.
I mean I don't watch GPU reviews because they are mostly boring anyways. I only watch for the janky videos and pushing the boundaries and building wanly stuff.
The Madison claims need to be taken serious, but it's not like this couldn't be individuals that need to be singled out and kicked out.
So I really don't get the rage
I unsubscribed immediately. What a horribly toxic work environment and unpleasant company. Where I work, and I work for a place far bigger than LTT, no matter your seniority, you’re out the door the same day if you treat a member of staff the way Madison was treated. I’ve seen it happen. The fact she suffered such abuse for years from so many members of staff is indicative of a company so heavily poisonous, they shouldn’t exist. Hopefully other fans can see through their parasocial relationship and cut the cord.
At the risk of sounding pedantic, it wasn't for years. But yes, the Madison situation needs to be addressed. Can only hope that the culture is rectified, and whoever assaulted her is found, investigated, and fired if need be.
Agreed. Their response made it worse. Watching the PR response today is why I’ve unsubscribed. No thanks.
The apology video has such an off vibe to it. They continue making jokes about sponsors, the store and more when it clearly is not the time to do so. It feels unprofessional. After reading Madison's thread it feels even more... wrong. I see what they were going for but it clearly is not working. They should have just stayed serious, addressed the issues and kept the video short. There's more stuff coming to light now and it seems like they need more than this one video now.
Well then you are lost.
Goodbye LTT, social media has proven to be a corrupted version of social networks.
Though Lemmy isn’t the supremely popular setup that Reddit was, it seems to have, on average, better company.
I am positively surprised by everbody's takes around here. They all seem mostly reasonable and people are rightfully concerned about the well-being of their workers, something that hasn't even made it into todays apology video.
