    stop spamming this clown’s videos. He might be right about the right to repair but he’s got no clue what he’s talking about here. And the title is clickbait.

          Everyone needs to stop posting what they like because I don’t like it! Absolute child.

            not at all. the problem with this video is that the guy has literally no clue what he’s talking about.

            he does pretty decent job with right to repair, but when he tries to cover these topics he fails miserably.

              Since you seem to have the most knowledge about that topic, why don’t you explain where he’s wrong instead of repeating yourself?

              I’m all for sharing knowledge and educating people. Repeating that other people don’t have a clue about something, while not demonstrating you yourself have a clue about it, is just wasting everyone’s time.

                Hi, did you know your account is set to appear as a bot? Many users might be not seeing your content as a result.

      No idea, wondering the same thing myself. I can see most via a regular browser while not logged in, but it’s obvious some are missing. It’s possible the commenter I replied to deleted their comments, got banned, or something, and for whatever reason replies to those are also not visible in apps. There’s a comment asking if someone else knows their account was marked as a bot, maybe that has something to do with it.

        That was me asking actually. I saw someone upvoted the question but I can’t see anything. Weird

          I’ve got some idiot or a group of them following me around now making brand new accounts and single comments per account that say things that end with “not my problem” and downvoting everything, which is amusing because I’m on a server with downvotes disabled. All because I dismissed their complaints about this youtuber LOL

          So… yeah… Lemmy is having a Reddit day.

            Just to be clear, I was the one who commented against Rossmann. I deleted my comment because I was not up to arguing with Rossmann’s fan club, it was a waste of my time (I did not know that the answers to my comments would get deleted too).

            And I’m definitely not following you just because you posted a Rossmann video. I didn’t care enough to defend my points, I couldn’t care less about your other posts.

              I’m not even a huge fan of Rossmann, I was just asking you to explain what you felt he was wrong about. At no point in the thread did you ever explain why you were so vehemently claiming he has no idea what he’s talking about in this video.

              it was a waste of my time

              If anything, you wasted everybody else’s time by making a weird claim and refusing to explain yourself.

                It looks like you’re the troll after all. I honestly don’t care, just wanted to clarify that I’m against Rossmann, but I’m no harasser.

                  I’m the troll because you chose to reply and I clearly indicated idgaf now any more than before? Sure, ok, buddy.

          Hard to say without being able to see the comments. I suspect that if that were the case, the entire post would have been removed.

            But the comments where not removed by mods. It seems like the commenter removed them.

      Previously there was one top level comment that said something like “don’t give this guy views”, which was heavily downvoted and all other comments were a reply to that comment.

      I assume the person deleted their comment.

      He is super abrasive and speaks like a salesman. I don’t like his mannerisms either, but his message and ideals are right up my alley. Also, his videos are not very well edited, if at all, so his videos would sometimes give a very bad first impression. He looks like he’s on some drug or something with the dark circles around his eyes. Several videos also make him seem like a gym/frat bro with how he interacts with his employees.
