It's kinda funny that most of those videos had specific employees that made them fun, and they were later sacked or just left. They're a big part of what makes a channel, and if you keep kicking them off and getting new, cheaper people, the fans will get bored. He also shuts down whatever channels he has that were still remotely good e.g TechQuickie, GameLinked, whatever else there was
I think Linus got drunk with money and saw himself as part of the 1%, so he tried doing all this weird extravagant shit like the tennis court or his mcmansion, his labs, etc. He spent a significant amount of his profits on stupid shit his audience simply doesn't care about, and what they do care about he just never uses and leaves to gather dust. Most of his latest videos seem like he's running out of ideas, it's mainly just throwing money around at random shit
And don't get me wrong, I enjoyed a lot of his older money throwing videos, but recent stuff seems to be ...out of touch? I don't know, could just be jealousy? Possibly, but I don't feel this irked when I see the odd mr beast clip of him spending 100x what Linus does on similarly retarded shit, or Donut shooting machine guns from helicopters or whatnot, those are really fun to watch
This corporate structure Linus has now also sucks. He's definitely hired different idea people and fired all the ones that came up with good ideas before
