I mean, Linus’s video about a fire truck toy was a gag and that was ages ago. The gags have always been big parts of the videos.
If you want pure information and performance metrics, ltt isn’t the place to go for sure. But not every video needs to be dense on plots and performance metrics. They didn’t even start out doing that, they transitioned to that from doing unboxings. He’s said himself they aren’t doing that on the main channel anymore cause others have carved that niche for themselves.
They definitely do more shovelware content these days but unfortunately it does seem to be what big creators do to stay relevant

I don’t know anything about this pressure campaign you mentioned but do they still work with them? It’s not like Kurzgesagt have no say over what the Gates Foundation does. If they still work together then that’s not great but the Gates Foundation has also done lots of good stuff too, no? Idk what outweighs what but I think there are organisations that are far worse that we should be concerned about.
