Not sure if this gets seen by anyone from LTT, but I’m a regular consumer of their products (ie., their YT content).
I find that more and more of their videos don’t seem to end with some satisfactory conclusion, and quite a number of it is way too janky when with a little more thought and planning, could have been done and concluded much better.
Take for example the fanless heatsink dipped in ice bath video, or the car radiator water cooling video. It’s always them trying to fix some jank or scramble on camera to fight some spontaneous issues or leaks or whatever. It’s fun, yes, entertaining, yes, but utterly unsatisfactory in the end. Reminds me of a post-nut sad depression wank.
Another comparable thing is the retro emulator boxes where they play a couple games and go: “Well, it played games, it’s either fine or terrible. now check out out sponsor!!”
I still really like their server content and the home pool water cooling has been a recent cool series.
I really, really wish they had just done more Scrapyard Wars. Super entertaining and my girlfriend also wanted to watch it.
But it’s hard to ride a like between entertainment and actual lab-quality testing. When they tied themselves to LTT Labs, they made a choice that seems to have been beyond their capabilities, both in terms of scheduling and workforce (LTT folks saying timelines are constantly too tight) and ethics.

If you have seen three Stooges, that is what LTT videos are for me. No other value other than entertainment.
But after the thread by Madison it is getting difficult to support them for even that.
