I've always got bad vibes from LTT. He seemed like he always had a "bigger than you" attitude about everything. The things mentioned here exceeded my already existing opinions about him.

Oof LTT getting two black eyes in a week. Really starting to fail it seems. Perhaps Linus should take control and reevaluate their approach

Don't worry they put out a PR corporate apology everything is magically fixed

I knew things were bad with LTT, but now it's just like a trainwreck all of the sudden.

Come on, LTT. DO BETTER.

Nah, fuck LTT. I'll follow the people I like if they do their own thing, but Linus and some others can fuck off.

Wow... That's pretty damning stuff. Hope she's doing better now, and shame on LTT/LMG.

Sounds like they have no real HR and force people to burn out. The sexist stuff is absolutely horrible.

I've been a fan for years and even went to LTX this year (I had a few issues with the expo but put it down to the companies inexperience doing expos), but I think I'll be unsubscribing now.

Can't wait to watch Linus fumble over the explanation of this one. I'm sure it'll just be a lot of deflection and not-so-subtle victim blaming, but at this point he needs to squirm. Can't pawn it off on "the new CEO."

[–] Durotar@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago

This is crazy. I'm glad she's not working there anymore.
