Hugely appreciate it 👍
I just got so fed up with the spammers I decided to pull a thanos and do it myself ¯_(ツ)_/¯
…what part of the software is obfuscated? No obvious obfuscated logic to be found…
2:40 i had no idea those videos existed but would probably like to see them
literally the same premise as fixing a bethesda game with mods
Awesome video, Linus!! It's so great that you brought attention to ThioJoe's amazing creation!! You guys are both the GOATs of tech YouTube!!
I hate spam
Community does what company dont.
I can't say Sponsorblocks here?
Everyone who's ever typed "first" is pretty screwed right now.

YouTube getting rid of the dislike counter just proves that they're against free speech.
i love how bro went from slamming thiojoe for his joke videos like the double your ram or speed up your internet speed to making a video about his software that blocks spam
Sorry guys, but it's got worse.
Not sure if thiojoe is the unexpected hero
*Works like a champ! Linus and ThioJoe have earned thanks and respect from this DOS-era user. Spammers are cockroaches and this tool is the Pyrethroid. Cheers!
Lel That Level Of D1sT0pian is Insane,
The Guy Literally tell his followers that he's using a generated bot to scan his followers comments to "automatically" delete those who would push certain bad narrative or bad opinion ( literally ).
While pushing for transgender model at 8:17.
I was wondering why was the point where most people watch, because most people saw it, but no comments about it because it was filtered. Lel
There must be a TONE of people seeing this right now, because these kinds of channel appeal to tech fans who aren't completely unaware of how it actually work.
What a way to boost extremist.
ThioJoe sucks!
I have been using his software for a while now. I do recommend that LTT have a guy go back threw the videos once they have been up for a while to remove the spam because if I have seen a video when it was new, shortly after their will be more spam.
also many people have things like commas in their names.
YouTube cares jackshit about reported comments. I´ve tested this. And the initial delete after reporting is fake. If you refresh the page, the comment is back again. And i´ve observed crypto-scam-comment that i reported. Nearaly everyone was still there weeks later. So reporting comments is time wasting.
And still
My biggest gripe with YouTube's system is the ridiculous number of repeat comments that are from the same user on the same video.
How is YouTube's system not at least running a single scan of the video for the user's own comments when they comment on the video!
YouTube's system is insanely lazy when it comes to spam and I highly doubt it isn't intentionally lazy.
Can anyone please please tell me why the only ones who can see my comments are whatsapp bots? (unless its a channel with hardly any views). I only ever get 1 like or comment and it's a whatsapp bot. Please help. I just want to participate in the YT community. I've never been abusive or anything. Been going on for 2 years now. I'm hoping that what you do is allowing you to see this comment.
Trash video spam is not the same as scam
this kind of bedeviling VPN (sponsors) was an interesting process. It's vpn know what you get if you need one but use a brain around marketing blabla.
I will go through this comment section to insult every spammer.
Well, as the Twitter Files story has revealed, Social Media companies had other goals in mind when it comes to content moderation, they want to control political discourse, they don't care if a Ghanian 21 year old scams people of shipping money
YouTube need to burn down all those baby boys
I would help, but I am only a physical manifestation not a tech manifestation
I’m gonna edit this comment if I get a tech manifestation within the replies
A.k.a. A bot
Thiojoe deserves an award of some sort by youtube for his contribution.
And youtube needs to give an apology video for their incompetence
Remembering how many times Linus referred to Thiojoe as an ***hole in his videos because of thiojoe's early scammy videos, it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to see this video of Linus praising Thiojoe's contribution to the youtube community.
WAY TO GOOOOO!!!
