Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.

Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.

Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?

    Yeah, that’s what I’m basing what I said on. You can see GN thanking Linus for quick action, and being understanding that an inexperienced writer could make such a mistake.

      “quick action”

      3 years later and only after Linus made vague legal threats to GN about Honey requiring GN to publicize LTT’s past bad behavior.

        I’m literally quoting GN, who said “quick action” in the email you can see, what can I tell you. You can disagree that it was quick action, but you are not disagreeing with me, you are disagreeing with GN.

            According to your source they replied and acknowledged the plagiarism 34 minutes after being notified by GN. I have no clue where you are getting 3 years.

              “Plagiarism by Linus Tech Tips of GamersNexus content wherein we previously privately reached out without resolution”

              They had privately contacted LTT in the past. LTT ignored it until GN made a public video years later.

                    You: Quote

                    Me: The quote is not backed by any proof

                    You: The quote is from the article

                    Where else would it be from and how is that relevant?
