    A lot of mainstream TechTubers have been doing Linux content and challenges lately. Dankpods, LTT, Jay, etc. I think its really having an effect on people realizing they have other options outside Windows.

      Shout out to Switch and click doing a run through of different distros as well. Probably the best from a “normie” perspective IMO.

        I’ve seen those videos pop up in my recommended, but haven’t watched them yet. Might give it a watch later today, I really enjoyed the one video I watched of hers.

      It makes me sad Wade said he wasn’t gonna do Linux videos anymore because the videos didn’t do well, especially his Linux Olympics video. Sure his testing methodology wasn’t perfect but for the every man type of tech tuber usually playing with old crap electronics he’s a good point of entry for that type of audience
