I'm glad they recognize the gravity of the situation and are treating this as a true existential moment for the company.
I'm pretty sure Linus saw the absolute shitstorm he was about to face in all 3 chats, and ran the other way.
Either that or the whole management team had to drag him away kicking and screaming so he wouldn't throw more oil into the fire.
Yvonne said she was the one that put her foot down after his post. The entire vibe I got out of that apology video was "alright, we're raining in Linus and fixing this shit"
My guess is this. Tong probably said "Linus, shut the fuk up and disappear for a little bit".
