Hard agree.

I used to watch LMG all the time, then it felt like the content turned to infomercials.

Then that whole drama thing went on and the fact that (in a leaked video) they had a manager say "you gonna get up on that table and dance for me" at the end of a HR meeting with zero reactions aside from laughing led me to fully block all of their channels.

To me it's clear they have an internal culture problem that came along with the money.



I find the LTT stupid ideas like watercooling his server room funny but without Sponsorblock it’s a pain.

Also their merch … this is so overpriced. A screwdriver for 70 dollar, when nearly the same product costs 20.

But there are enough people that buy that stuff.


As far as I'm aware it's a similar price to screwdrivers of similar quality. Much cheaper options exist but I wouldn't call them "nearly the same".


LTT themselves said they worked with Megapro to make a slightly modified version of their screwdriver. The original is $33.


They licensed the required patents from Megapro, but the internals of the screwdriver are bespoke and higher quality than the Megapro equivalent.
