I am greatly relieved to hear that you are still part of our community @wendell

I express myself best through art and memes. This is how the current debacle makes me feel.

Thank you for the update and transparency Wendell. It is greatly appreciated :) . I am definitely in favor of you continuing in any capacity desired. Your hardware / enterprise hardware / Linux content, as well as your personality and honest feedback is the reason I'm here.

What was in my opinion, the best technology brand on both YouTube and the internet, has come to pass. In fact I'd wager it was one of the best brands ever. Everything about the The Tek and Tek Syndicate was just perfect. The charisma, the chemistry, the low key approach. The openness, there was never any corporate wall for people to hide behind, granted complete freedom to take a fresh approach to a lot of important issues that in my opinion, needed to be discussed from an unbiased and unfiltered lens.

To me, the education that TS provided is increasingly important as we progress. No one else touched on the things that are discussed here every day in a way that was as accessible and sensible to modern society. There are important issues here that I'm afraid will be buried. Issues that have and will continue to shape the future of mankind. Sure, Tek Syndicate was just a YouTube channel of a few guys hanging around having some laughs and talking about some cool stuff, but no one else tied it all together and turned on the lightbulb like TS. Maybe it's not what the team had in mind when they started, maybe Logan didn't want what could really be described as more of a vocation than anything else at this point, but I'd argue that the unique ability of TS to, when everything was operating smoothly, produce unparalleled content that reached across the globe, really eliminates all choice in the matter.

People might think that I'm romanticizing it, but Tek Syndicate, in its prime, did really important work that I'm worried to see come to an end. No matter how it's sliced, it will never be the same and I don't think anything that rises out of it will ever be better. So thank you to the whole team for years of quality content. From day one I have recommended the channel and show to everyone that I know, including many people who know nothing about technology, to try and do my part to spread the great work and great ideas and great questions that you all have created. I hope that throughout all of this all the videos stay up and accessible, because they need to be seen.

It really saddens me a lot to see it end like this, a really bright part of all our lives is going out.

Keep things clean and honest as you have done, it will always work out ! CF 50 years in business........(LOL)

I know most of the things couldn't return as they were, but I'd be quite happy to see Logan and Wendell giggle and talk smack on The TEK

I hope all conflicts and misunderstandings are cleared as soon as possible.
