I don't watch LTT or indeed hardly anything on YT, so I'm not about to sit through a teary YouTube apology video.

I assume it's the usual "sorry not sorry" arse covering job?

First one was. Second one not so much. It also outlined what actions they plan to take to improve things. We'll see how it going.

If you only see the Linus bit, the second hasn't changed that much, he was still trying to justify it and to feel like a victim.

What's the second one I only saw the one on their YouTube channel

That is the second. The "first" was linus going on an unhinged rant and shirking blame on the LTT forums

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well, and the stuff on the WAN show. I don't watch it so I only saw highlights.

The timeline as far as I can tell is non-apology on the WAN show, Gamers Nexus releases video calling out Linus on a bunch of stuff, Linus's breakdown in the forums, the last video on LTT.
