Isn't he some semi-famous tech YouTuber? I would be surprised if he actually had bought this product.

[โ€“] Little8Lost@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

he is very famous in the tech sphere at this point i think
He mostly makes videos going about tech articles and giving his mind about it but sometimes explaining some things about the choices he made on his setup/projects (i think the latter videos are better).
Famous enough even that some junior devs/viewers copy him. (i remember some rumors/sm-posts that senior devs dont like it BUT cant make anyone happy)
I personally dislike him* but there are a lot that like him.

*reasons for why i disliking him (its a wall of text, sorry, its not even productive)I know that the first video i saw was really bad and got me into avoiding his videos.
Dont even know if it was because he talked bs or if i just thought he was weird.
Did not treat him like a credible source until i watched a better video a few months after.
So i was biased from the start

A while ago he made a video about an article/reportage where the creators asked him nicely to delete/change/share-revenue because it was like 95% their content and the rest him saying something and he completely flipped how they dare after he gave them so much exposure.
He also backlashed against another creator who defended the company and spoke out against him.
To my knowledge Theo still things he was the one wronged.

Less important to my reasoning: He is actively working on an AI app thing (combines different AIs into 1 app)
