Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.

Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.

Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?

    Also that video where he tried Mac OSX for the first time. All his complains in that video were that it didn’t work like Windows.

      There is a difference between those willing to change something and those trying something out.

      I use Apple devices at work and the sometimes ass-backwards way of hotkeys or UI decisions is really aggravating annoyance in regards to logically understanding the task needed to do something comparison to another OS like Windows.

      E.g. deleting the app data of an app on iOS.
      Why can’t I just reset a damn app? Why do I need to uninstall and download it again from the store??

        Nah sure there are some annoyances with MacOs. But most things are just because it works differently. Different doesn’t automatically mean worse. I use all three OSs on a regular basis, they all have their pros and cons. But Windows has the most bs out of the three.
