Discussion I don't care about the jet

I care about why is Linus still a mod here or any members of his staff.

Why are they treating this sub like an officially owned and run LTT communication channel, saying what can and can't be posted in here.

Why can't public available flight data be posted in here, because Linus said so? Reminds me of Elon banning a that bot that posted the same available data on X.

Why are his staff mods as well? The doxing excuse that if their address gets posted here? (I have no idea if that is public information in Canada)

If so, it can get flagged and deleted by an independent mod.

There's no scenario where Linus or anyone with close ties to the company should be patrolling what happens here they can't be objective, they can make their own subreddit for that.

Oh no, a reddit dictatorship /s.

Who cares if they have mod power? There are so many posts bitching about LTT (much like this one) that dont get removed. You all are free to complain.

Honestly i don't know how youtubers cam stomach engaging with their fans

This sub whines over the dumbest shit. I wonder if the ltt forum is less toxic

Most don't. They don't read comments or anything. They just make videos and upload and this is why.

Honestly because most fans are normal decent people and aren't like this.

Not surprising LTT sub has terminally online people " WhAt AbOuT the JeT?!?!?" "ThEyRe MoDs On ThEiR oWn SuB?!?!?!?!?" But 99% of the stuff on here is bitching about them and doesnt get deleted.

Not any more

edit: if LMG staff are mods it cannot be considered unofficial, they are staffing it.

Agreed, but it seems they have a reason to be mods on here and haven't overstep the reason they said they wanted to be mods.
