~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

I never got the appeal of any influencer flaunting their shit. Look, I'm happy your successful, good on you, but I watch videos to learn and grow, I really don't give a shit how many cars you have unless you're going to be teaching me about each one's internals and unique features.

Exactly! If he'd started with "look at how many hard drives I have set up in here" and then went on to show a really interesting novel use for them, I'd have maybe stuck around.

Though his personality was a little over the top regardless, but that can be forgiven in small doses if the content is particularly unique and engaging.
