It is just about steamOS though.

Why is this so heavily disliked?
LTT’s analysis is often haphazard, poorly informed, or both. Predictably, that leads to a high rate of bad conclusions. Linus Sebastian in particular seems to put sensationalism above all else, and he overestimates his understanding of computer systems. I would not recommend his advice to anyone.
I can’t speak for other people, though. Maybe someone else will chime in with other reasons.
I don’t watch much of this kind of content (I prefer text) but from what I have seen, Gamers Nexus is a superior channel.
GN actually has a pretty fantastic website full of written content, and even with a properly-working RSS feed. LTT has no such thing.
That being said, GN is very high-level and focused approach (gaming PCs) and LTT is a more low-level overview of a lot of different stuff.
Probably because LTT has been shown to be deceitful, unethical, and unwilling to take steps to ensure accuracy. These two videos from GN explain: https://youtu.be/FGW3TPytTjc?si=b8UhcBFU9eo0DPv0

Prior to that I found Linus smug face intensely irritating. And when I went looking for information on stuff his videos would always pop up but they never actually helped.
So while I mildly disliked Linus prior to the GN investigation, now I’ve actually blocked his YouTube channels.
YMMV
No idea lol
A positive video about linux by LTT. Impressive. To be fair, it is realistic and the average Joe won’t bother with it, but somebody who wants to and sees how easy it is to install, might be convinced by the video. Nice job. Hopefully Valve will be the one to invest in an
InstallLinux.exethat can take you through a wizard on windows, do all the necessary backup, software alternative search, reboots, and so on, so that a complete noob can just double click the.exeand have linux installed without a USB stick in an hour or less.
