@suuuoppp: To stop the speculation and DM's I am receiving. I chose to quit my role at LTT because it, and the working environment I was facing, were ruining my mental health. The number of daily items...…

TLDR:

Over work

Mentally draining/abusive workplace

harassment

(maybe intentionally) bad management practices

lack of any signs of improvement

    Eh I was being a bit moody and flippant when I wrote that.

    That said, I don’t think I have ever, nor wound I ever buy merch from anything. It’s just not my scene, but I’m sure I waste my money on things others wouldn’t enjoy so each to their own I guess.

    May I ask why you buy merch? Is it to support the (already rich) creators, is it because you genuinely like the products, you just want cool merch, or something else?

      I usually only buy stuff I like/enjoy design wise.
      I’m usually not someone that would buy a band shirt and would most likely gravitate to buying the CD instead.

      In regards to LTT: I enjoy their designs and feel. So far I bought a CPU/HDD/multi nep t-shirt, a waffle shirt and 2 flannel shirts.
      That I support them is just a side product.
      I believe that Linus genuinly meant it when he says “I don’t want to produce garbage” and for that alone I would spend the 5€ more.

      For now I will not buy anything anymore and watch their next steps.
