Oh the Cody's Lab guy had dealings with that fag Linus? That explains why he's been hugely depressed for the past couple years.
How would you tell?
Your right, dammit never trust the youtube comments. Ill delete part of the old post.
I don't think soy-face appeases the algorithm as much as branding/logo being featured in the thumbnail. Seeing a human looking like someone will feed them a whole cucumber might be more enticing than some or it's become "on brand" and to pop that recognition factor. For personality driven channels having the personality in the thumbnail makes sense but that doesn't mean other channels have to use it and many don't.

Hey guys, is robbery worth it?
In the case of LTT they could still post on Floatplane and have merch sales, but that's not nearly enough to keep them running for long. While buying property is risky, I think it does make some sense. If the company goes under you at least have assets to liquidate.
If Linus was smart he would have back end business instead of the channels. Build and sell computers.
Yeah, I can't quite tell if these business models are sustainable because traditional media (TV) is effectively dead and this is where the ad dollar firehose is spraying, or if they're all going to be toast during a real recession when ad spending gets crushed.
There's no margin in building computers these days. There's a reason why there are hardly any Mom and Pop computer stores left.
He is definitely not a complete dumbass, however he is very confident in topics he knows nothing about. Classic dunning-kruger...
Yeah, I probably didn't phrase it all that well. Linus is definitely a walking posterboy for the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
This reminds me when he couldn't download a file from internet on the linux challenge and he still plays as a smart tech-tuber
