All the drama started from this video
Gamers Nexus then made a video breaking down a bunch of issues with LMG
Linus responded 3 hours after GN posted their video.
The response was rushed and poorly made. Gamers Nexus the next day made a response.
Which made LinusTechTips push out a video addressing some of the concerns and what they are gonna do.
Then, an ex-employee came out, stating many of the issues they had with the company.
LinusTechTips on twitter (or x i guess?) stated they are looking into it.
Philip Defranco summarizes everything within 10 minutes and includes a couple of questions they asked LMG. I thought he did pretty well, so its alot better than spending several hours looking into everything.
