Its been a while so my memory is hazy, but basically, she recently lost her support systems and was brought to a new country where she basically couldn’t afford to lose that job. This adds a lot of context to her statements after when combined with other details about the company. Hopefully someone else remembers better, because Im sure there was something more sketchy about it Im failing to remember.
Madison’s thread detailing the whole thing is available here if you want to refresh your memory, but the TLDR is that, at least as of 2-3 years ago, LTT maintained a sweatshop production pace, was a hostile workplace in several dimensions, and executed a rugpull on Madison in terms of permitting and supporting her independent efforts in a way that created a practically textbook claim of promissory estoppel.
In the wake of the blowup, Linus and LTT more generally did make a lot of appropriately sorrowful noises and promised to do better, and I suppose it’s possible that they have done so, but I don’t really consume their content and TBH haven’t bothered to check.
