The time has come for me to step down as CEO of Linus Media Group (and everything else under the umbrella). Let me tell you what that looks like: what’s changing, what’s not, and who is taking my place…

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
Yeah so it really doesn't matter for us, its just Linus not doing legal spielsh in the background x)
What a sell out.
Hopefully Linus will not drop as many things as he used to now that stress is offloaded…
uuf , for a moment i thought Linus was disappearing from the channel, without Linus i would probably stop watching the chanel, Linus is the man
wow, It seems Linus went corporate … , it makes sense, since there is only 24hours a day
❤
I love the honesty! Thanks for continuing making videos.
You have been the Single most helpful tech guide in my life. Thank you so much, I still remember the old LTT vids where you unboxed crap on the floor and even popping out of a box 😂
I was hyped that this was a good move, until I found out you were putting the man that ran NCIX into the ground in the role. Like what?!??!?
So so much respect for turning down $100M – because Linus does it for passion. Awesome!
Man, not heard the name Neoseeker in a while, I used to use their forums daily years ago 😅
CEO is a nice title to an assistant lulz
Whilst it is a bit strange to hear and does feel a little sad. If it makes Linus happier then whether content gets worse or better, that's fine. Looking forward to see what crazy stuff you can come up with next and that Lttstore also continues to stick around until I can afford to purchase everything from it!
turning down $100m is big time W. Well done Linus.
Sorry, but It's about fucking time. Been saying this for years. Your awesome but I have notice your creative side is been hurting. Best Success to you and your Company.
Honestly this seems obvious in hindsight and I am excited for it.
Good Luck Linus, hope it works out but I'm really not sure how it will work. I don't see any CEO going ahead with things like LABS or the screwdriver or dealing with the lax attitude to components that seem to go walkies from the workplace and I really can't see Linus accepting NO for his next brainwave idea that may cost Millions and millions such as the labs project. But like I say, GOOD LUCK!
Amazing! More Linus!!!
Do what you love, not how much it earns. Granted, you need the dosh to live and prosper but 20M in the bank is useless when you’re hospitalized with a TIA or a burnout. Do what you love!
Just FYI, you guys have already been the most premier primo source of tech news/info for years now. You can't/shouldn't do what Tech Jesus does. But if you do, I hope it is with GN. Anyway, I'm long time subscriber, almost from the beginning here in Australia and this seems like great news and respect for not selling out. It shows just how much all of this means to you, staff included. I don't ever want to see LMG disappear or change. Grow, sure. Here's to another 10 years of LMG!
Attention to detail not being your strongest suite doesn't mean you don't have it at all. It's just that your other extraordinary skills overshadow it. It's impossible to do what you did/do without exceptional attention to detail.
no promotion for Nick?
How could you do this all at the same time for so long?! Please take good care of yourself Linus, where would I get my maymays if you were gone?
Linus turns down 100M to keep true to the spirit of the company and vision, ngl I would not even mad about the sell, huge respect for this man
interesting dynamic to say the least. But if they are happy, I am too.
Am I the only one how can imagine Linus give you a segue to a Sponsor in a private conversation without a camara near by, out of nowhere
If you or anyone of the crew leaves I am unsubscribing
Usually when the original creator steps down its the beginning of the end for the channel.
Best of luck to Linus and LTT!
the lore gets deeper
What's wrong with user benchmark? I'm clearly out of the loop (and yes I'm new here).
I can't wait for the "It was not my decision I'm not liable"
Its first of april right???
Running a computer system (for example) and running a company are very different things. I think it needs no explanation that you simply want to focus on what you want to do with your life. Well done and good luck buddy! Onward!
We're never getting that follow-up to the switch to Radeon cards, are we…
Thank you Linus!
Thank goodness you didn't replace yourself with your dog. I mean who would seriously do that?
Anyway, good luck with your new future and may the company continue to do well. This is one of the best tech channels on Youtube. Certainly one of the most entertaining.
Godspeed Linus
Hope to see what will happen in the future of Linus Media Group
Smart move
Looking forward to the 8hr+ WAN show!
Biggest respect and best wishes to all of you!
is your new CEO John Sculley?🤣
Should have titled himself the Chief Envisioning Officer' no need for new business cards 🙂
You mean to tell me that you turned down 100 million to stay my friend?! Awwww, shukks. Thanks, bud!
Been watching you guys since the early Langley house days, can’t overstate how my heart sank after seeing the thumbnail. Now I’ve watched the video, I’m so reassured and glad that you’re doing the right thing Linus, I really hope you’re going to be able to enjoy working again more and focus on what you love instead of stressing all day. Looking forward to seeing more of Terren, he’s got big boots to fill but he sounds like the perfect fit
TL;DR ?
its been 7 hours and wikipedia has already written that he will step down xD
Congratulation for you choice! Must have been hard to come to this conclusion, your life style will get benefit from that. 100Mil weren't bad either but luckily you were in position to choose.
He said he is going to do what he does best like engaging with the community… and drop some more GPUs and expensive hardware?! Maybe?!
Linus you have done amazing these past 10 years. you deserve to have a rest now and step down. well done for getting Linus tech tips to the place they are now !!
