        That’s the usual outcome, even for investigations where there was something bad that happened.

        They hire an outside law firm who specializes in this. They do investigations of something that happened years previously, was badly handled so nothing was written down, memories fade, and people leave the job.

        The investigators are also biased since they are being paid by management.

        The typical result, regardless of the truth, is not finding anything.

        Guilty until proven otherwise? I think in civilized society its the other way around, right?

        I was expected to post three tweets, two Instagram posts, and two TikToks per day. I was also expected to plan, film, edit, and post two Floatplane exclusives per week. This included wrangling people to be in them when they were also all struggling to get their work done.

        This sounds like a normal workload for a full-time social media manager. The article doesn’t provide any details about the sexual harassment allegation.

          I didn’t see anyone here mention the spat Linus had with Gamers Nexus. That was stupid and ugly and set me against watching any more of his channel. I was never a regular anyways. Jeff Gearling is far better.

      A former staffer made claims of sexual harassment. It is unclear how substantiated those were, but i guess there was something going on. Since then they made a very heavily publicised effort to do better, but it’s obviously hard to tell from the outside if that resulted in real changes.
