Linus Sebastian, the founder of the Linus Tech Tips YouTube channel, has spoken out about its recent decline in viewership, describing it as a "very dramatic shift.

A lot of Youtube channels are reporting declining viewership lately.

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?

    • The WAN show with the plagiarized segment aired on September 16, 2022
    • GN wrote to LTT about the plagiarism on September 21, 2022
    • The email reply and pinned comment was published on September 21, 2022, less than an hour later

    Please give me some dates because I really can’t see where the 3 years are coming from. 3 years haven’t even passed yet from when the plagiarism happened

    The receipts show LTT plagerized, Linus promised to fix it but didn’t.

    So he did acknowledge it. Which, may I remind you again, is all I’m saying, in response your comment that he didn’t acknowledge it. I’m not saying he fixed the issue, all I’m saying is that he said he will, which you seem to agree with, so I really don’t know what you are disagreeing with me about.

    Your original comment is:

    For example he copied a gamersnexus script and never acknowledged it

    Which I disagree with, because in my opinion it should be:

    For example he copied a gamersnexus script, and didn’t properly fix the issue even though he acknowleged it and said he will

    I don’t know why you are saying he fixed it 3 years later when the WAN Clips segment still doesn’t even have a pinned comment. He did not fix it then, he did not fix it until now, and I bet it won’t be fixed 3 years later, which will pass next week.
