I agree. Linus even made a video about his own clickbaity thumbnails. His basic message was "sorry, I know it's dumb, but clickbaity stuff makes more money. Simple as that". If anyone wanted to see what a race to the bottom looks like, it's called "YouTube face".

So in what sense should we give him a pass for that and not give Intel a pass for things that make them money?

I think you can walk away from this hating both Linus and Intel if you so choose.

I don't love everything about LTT but I am impressed with the company Linus has built.
