      It is actually just an aussie looking at weird audio stuff. He started off with upgrading old Ipods but now he just does whatever he wants.

      I like his other channels for drums / drum history (Drum Thing) and cars (Garbage Time), but notably the main DankPods channel has 1.65 million subs which could bring a load of new people’s attention to Linux.

          I agree he didn’t do a good job evangelizing Linux. He made a video about his experiences with it, but I do think it’s representative of someone googling and first time trying Linux on their own without a guide friend to tell them, “oh you can do it this way now.” Him ultimately sticking with it in spite of that for data sovereignty is kind of the whole point of Free Software so I can respect that.
