MODERATORS
A guy who uses tricks to manipulate the algorithms of short form content sites (YouTube shorts and tik-tok) so his content always appears on the front page, which is then used to promote his stream. The advice and content he presents is not bad, just bland and obvious, well except for this caee. In this case he's a game developer himself so there's an obvious conflict of interest, which is why is opinion on the matter is so bad.
It's Thor from PirateSoftware. He's not just a game dev, he runs his own small indie gaming company. So big conflict of interest in regards to this.
You can decide for yourself I guess
