~~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...)~~

The shitstorm of a fallout has pushed the community behind Billet Labs more than they ever would have gotten had they just gotten reviewed properly. It may have sucked what had happened but I think they will be better off in the long term now that people are aggressively supportive of them. Funny twist of fate in my opinion.

While probably true, they just got really lucky and won a sort of internet shitstorm lottery.

Feel bad for all of the other folks over the last few years whose businesses were damaged by LTT that we've never heard of. Never will hear of.
