Framework is partially owned by Linus Media Group.

They got their PR game on lock.

Linus (not lmg) invested in the company. It's not the same thing. And he doesn't "partially own" anything. Also, linus' pr image kinda stinks. Specially after the GN debacle. The dude is a narcissist prick.

What happened between Linus and GN?

[–] potustheplant@feddit.nl 1 points 1 day ago

It's a long story and you can look up their videos on yt. Basically Linus is a narcissist who can do no wrong and the work culture at LMG is pretty crappy. Not just due to the pressure and quality of the videos being bad due to the high volume (that's why they don't post as often now) but also one of their former employees (Madison) said that she suffered abuse while working there. None of the higher ups gave a crap or did anything about it.
