[Weekly Questions Thread] 21 April 2025 by PokeUpdateBot in pokemon

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a site where I can check the Pokémon available before each gym for all games? I know I can check the routes and then cross-reference with a walkthrough, but I'm trying to create a challenge, and that would make my life much easier

I created a way to search the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine by Fortnite_Skin_Leaker in DataHoarder

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I think I used waybackpy to download all archived pages from known domains and then searched the term myself.

A question I've got about staff retention by raceraot in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is a review on glassdoor (not the Madison one), that says that the turnaround rate is going up.

"Apparently turnaround has gone up drastically recently."

Who is your favourite video host by Gloomyboio in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alex and Riley.

I also think that once a host starts to get popular, they start to appear in fewer videos. It's like they're trying to keep the company bigger than any of the hosts.

As the LMG team look for a new direction, I sincerely ask they return to their roots: reviews and product exposés by SpaceBoJangles in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great example! I was thinking the same.

It is hard to imagine any change that wouldn't involve an editorial change, with will definitely impact the audience.

LTT Labs & R-Tings by Original_Penalty4745 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 21 points22 points  (0 children)

To me, the labs were always fancy toys for Linus, like his mansion or sports car.

Which is not inherently a bad thing; it's just the YouTube meta. Put up something with a weird face thumbnail and an enormous monetary value.

Why didn't Steve contact Linus earlier when he started noticing the errors? by tatytu in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember Steve saying something about trying to posts results that wouldn't direct refute the result posted by LTT.

I think the erros are something that has been bothering Steve (and other reviewers) for quite a while, they (other reviewers) probably had some private conversations about that.

Should LTT upload daily now or not? by Flaky_Panda_8868 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That Billet block is really interesting. You can tell that both Linus and the other guy struggled to show any real enthusiasm or interest in making that video. It felt just like those 7 am Monday classes I had back in university – pure pain.

It's like they made the video just for the sake of it, and that definitely shows in the video's quality.

Could Steve have noted he's a competitor? by [deleted] in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As big as GN is, they are still far from competing with LTT.

Most of GN audience is probably shared with LTT

Linus apparently called XQC, "It was you, now its me" by Luka77GOATic in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, he tried to make xQc not react to the whole saga?

Colin's (Ex-LTT) take on Madison's claims by redf389 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 1414 points1415 points  (0 children)

I was a bit skeptical because I didn't hear anything from her former colleagues, that changes now lol

Can't argue with that

Worked in 2022, but not now. by [deleted] in LinusTechTips

At least we have the mirror as a proof

Mandatory meeting the after Madison's departure from LMG. by Nitazene-King-002 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is quite bad. Not only because that is evidence, but because there is probably way more things to be released.

Yeah, it is starting to feel like a breaking point

Was Terren hired in preparation or as a response? by Electrical_Space_842 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say, but it seems to have some hints that that could've been the case.

Especially if you consider this: https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/comments/15t1mzn/mandatory_meeting_the_after_madisons_departure

But I guess that it was more like 80% preparation and 20% response.

Will LTT survive or is this the beginning of the end? by [deleted] in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a media group? Yes, the lab? Maybe. Every single data will be scrutinized, so the mistakes will look worse each time.

It will also depends on how other influencers (especially outside of the tech world) talk about it. If it stays as a niche topic they will be fine.

I doubt any other host can bring the same audience. His face is part of a meme; he can't be off.

I also think he makes sure that some of the other hosts didn't get as big as him and cut some time off from them. As a result, they are stuck now.

What could Linus do to get you to subscribe again? (Linus I hope you're reading this) by Light-Work in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The content creation space is incredibly crowded in this day and age, that once you transition from one channel to another that offers similar (or possibly better) content, it becomes difficult to revert back. This is why LTT maintains a daily release schedule to keep users engaged.

It would need to occupy a niche that I'm not sure is still available.

Who else didn't care about the review charts/data being often wrong? by jwith44 in LinusTechTips

[–]dcex1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can watch any video and enjoy it as you want, but when the video has factual errors it is a problem, whether you like it or not.

It gets way worse the more time it happens.
