~~⚠️ De-clickbait-ify the youtube titles or your post will be removed!~~
~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~
~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~
~~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...)~~

... I suppose the only way to move forward is to see how LMG/LTT responds... Untill then, I've halted all FP subscriptions and unsubbed from all channels. Especially considering the response to GN's piece.
If it's true that all they care about is their bottom line, unsubbing is the best thing you can do.
Sadly Idk how many subs they're gonna lose due to both this and the GN piece. It might not be enough to send a strong enough message.
Halting all payments is the best thing you can do. But subscribe count hasn't really mattered for a long time now. Not a bad thing to unsubscribe but just wanted to point out it's not the best thing you can do.
View count is what matters so simply stop watching, less watchers means less ad revenue
The only response that's appropriate and sufficient is firing everyone who has contributed to this unethical, actively hostile environment including the CEO and Linus himself, and instituting zero tolerance ethics and inclusion policies and an ethics group to stamp this toxic culture into dust. Nothing short of that will have any effect.
Because these problems start and end at the top of the org.
