TL:DW It's a 54:20 video of Fake Linus interviewing with Linus Torvalds. It goes over Linus's views on hardware choice, questions about Linux and several community questions.

The video is long, but it's a good listen.

If it helped you, that's great. We can dislike LTT for our reasons and appreciate the positive impact when they have it.

Which is totally valid... And also the entire point of my comment. This video had Linus Torvalds in it, giving a pretty decent interview, while building a Linux PC and this thread was nothing but hate. Literally no appreciation for the positive impact LTT was having in a community that, at least on paper, should be over the moon.

I don't see much Torvalds stuff on camera, so this was nice. I'm not asking people to like LTT, it's just the dialogue around them on reddit and Lemmy feels extremely immature and outspoken and in this instance felt detrimental to the space and the supposedly shared hobby.
