Linus Tech Tips Video was released today, however it isn't a proper apology video, but just an attempt to salvage the PR. Here are some of the cringe moment...
Dont even need to watch the whole video. This is all you gotta see.
The problem is that at LTT it’s always goofy time. If they just sit down and start talking, yes that is much more professional but at the same time it really feels disingenuous, coming from someone who has stated on multiple occasions that he wants dbrand to sponsor the video eventually made about his own funeral. I do think they could have gone for less jokes, but it’s hard to get the balance right, especially if the video in question is (somewhat ironically) rushed.
At this point it’s a mea culpa. Even with the expected goofy angle. That’s at least 1000 times better than what basically any other multi-multi million dollar corporation would say or do.
Or is your only concern having a target for outrage?
I’m not saying they are forgiven, but it’s more than basically anybody else. And should the pressure stop? Also no.

So what would you like from them?

While I agree, I think you’re unnecessarily smug and this is rhetorically ineffective.
Destroying a small company (Billet Labs) and telling viewers to not buy for any price while you yourself did the test inaccurately.
“Hahah. Don’t mind us, we are just being goofy here LOL (lttstore.com)”
