His videos about Microsoft are also poor in my opinion.
I have wondered before if it is deliberate.

Yup thereās a pattern in the video uploads also
This is him trying to 180 and walking around but never onto the points of his prior videos.
Among the top comments this is ever more common:
I got pissed at him over the HTTPS stuff and called him out on one of his bad tweets
Just realised I literally said it was bad journalism
ā¦ not sure if weāve ended up turning this into a Lunduke threadā¦ gave him exactly what he wants lol
But in general, there is plenty of bad Linux ājournalismā out there. I think a lot of people like to think they are doing a journalistās job but never put in the actual effort required to provide proper journalism.
Thereās definitely things to say about Linux and free software, itās hard work though to do it properly I think.
Most of the stuff out there such as Lundukeās and bloggers/rants really in a conventional journalistic form/newspaper would fall into readers/opinion letters/letter to the editor and for many viewers & readers blurs the lines between real journalism and the afore mentioned āletters/opinionsā as weāve known them in older forms of media.
Actual journalism is a process with standards
Here are among some of the starting overviews of what that entails:

They could make the postal service more secure if they would just shred the mail before they delivered it. That service would probably make a lot of people happyā¦ He sounds really paranoid in that video.
This is a non topic.
ā¦ moving on.
I seem to remember him doing a video about having recently left the suse project, that he thinks itās a good project, but heās moving on.
And then he left it pretty much at that.
Surprisingly little drama, for himā¦
I think his lack of talking is because he does not see anything worth ranting about, or controversial?
Iām not gonna disagree about lundukes shill tendencies (I mean, look that the tux dress up book). I also donāt think itās as big of a problem as heās making it out to be. One thing I really enjoy about Lunduke is that he clearly states these things too be his opinion. And even concerning the tux book, itās not like thereās anything really wrong with it in the first place.
If nothing else, itās interesting, and Itās engaging. The veracity is always up to the reader or the viewer to ascertain. I especially have little issue since I think itās both self serving and well intended.
I really only stick around phoronix and random sites I come across so I canāt really say much else to anything else he said.
I think thatās a copout and not good enough. He states itās his opinion then goes on to suggest what heās talking about is fact. The Https video is a good example of this. Option doesnāt enter it, he was outright wrong in the statements he was making and refused to listen to anyone why didnāt agree with him. He uses its his opinion as a mask
Yeah, you are right, like his most recent video about representation in ITā¦did he take it down?
He did have some decent numbers to start off and just went off with his twitter poll numbers afterwards. Still stating that he was only stating fact.
I think I worded what you qouted incorrectly, itās better to say that I know it is his opinion, and should I be interested (many times I am) I can go on to further research.
I have seen him say āits just my opinionā at the start of many videos, so I donāt think your wrong, he does try to put that impression across. With a number of his videos now, iām not convinced anymore that he says that for innocent reasons.
I honestly lean to thinking that hes found a corner (stir the pot, misinfo, drama) and it utilising that to try and cut out the corner as his. I think its a bad strategy.
I might be missing a good chunk since I never get on facebook or twitter or anything so my only impression is of him on his videos.
I had to stop watching lunduke and a few other channels. Im enthusiastic about linux, science, technology and Ive found myself in the youtube comments turning into a troll.
I have to leave him out there doing stuff that makes me cringe like LiL Tay.
The bit about OpenSUSE is true. He dropped it for PopOS_, and a few weeks later or so actually ripped on OpenSUSE tech like YAST among other things.
It doesnāt surprise me very much that he dropped OpenSUSE for the OS of his sponsor as soon as leaving SUSE, it was just a part of his character that was somehow obvious. That being said, OpenSUSE is a fantastic distro and is probably better off not having his name attached to it.
Update: I just noticed Lunduke has comments disabled on Youtube. How long ago did he do that?
Edit: Found it!
Seems kinda stupid. Personally, if I see a YouTuber has disabled comments, I wonāt watch the video. That just tells me one of two things.
If there are anti-semitic comments on the page, report them or ignore them. Just because thereās a few assholes doesnāt mean you should shut down your entire comment section.
I told him youtube has automated filters for trigger words.
Update:
What I said
Oh look at what happened.
It looks like he has something to hide because Iām not a Nazi. Nazis hated Jews and loved Socialism, I love Jews and hate Socialism.
Well, Iāll definitely make sure to unsub if I havenāt already.
He also has his like/dislike numbers hidden. Not sure if itās the whole channel or just his most recent video. Either way, heās a scaredy-cat.
I actually like his most recent video XD ReactOS <3
But funny enough, he didnāt like ReactOS when I asked him about it on a Linux Thursday.
