Agreed. First LMG needs to clean house to make it a mentally safe work environment so there is never a repeat of Madison’s case … cause wtf. Second, an apology to Billet Labs … cause wtf. Third, they need to slow down the pace of work so the employees can focus on quality and accuracy.
The rate at which they pump out content is, in my opinion, unsustainable for the employees and unsustainable for the semi-regular viewer as well
I’ve noticed my recommendations have largely stopped showing me LTT videos over the past several months, probably because youtube recognizes that im not watching a large % of their videos, so why would youtube recommend the next one? i feel like their pace is thinning out their semi-regular viewers and leaving a highly devout community. To me, the semi-regulars are what add balance to the community rather than it becoming an echo chamber.
I think by slowing down, LTT will be in a much healthier happier place in the long term, even if the numbers don’t obviously show it. That said, idk if I can see their videos in the same light knowing what’s happened behind the curtains. I think for rn, that might be it for me.

It may’ve been sustainable if they had all 120 people (or more) working in groups on videos, but at this point there’s a question to be asked if at this point they’re tech youtube channel or full blown video making company.
Who needs quality and happiness when you’re on the advertiser money gravy train?
The whole YouTube model is shovel shit, get paid. None of the big content farms will change while it’s making them rich. That godawful dystopian video about the Cash App Compound wasn’t an outlier. It’s where they’re all trying to get to.
People are no longer making videos for other people. They’re making videos to please algorithms.
