Thanks, Anonymous! Hey guys, excited for LTX this year! I work for a telecom provider and I was wondering if you guys ever considered a networking focused series or channel? People know scarcely little about their own network

  Douglass T
Thanks, Douglass T! I wish you had larger sizes. I wear a 6XLT in a T-Shirt, so literally none of your apparel products work for me, which makes me sad. I get it though my size would not be profitable, but maybe someday.

Reply to Mike D
Reply @Mike D! Sadly the intro had to be nuked because engagement numbers go down when people skip the intro. It's the sad reality.

Thanks, Soren H! First Merch Message ever. It was the pin that got me to do it. To Linus, love your sense of humor. Don't censor your jokes for the minority of your audience. We all love your jokes. That Bell Delfine.

Reply @Exode P! Not normally. Having the backlog massive has no repercussions. I just want to get them done so people can see their message. The goal is to get each one done in 160 seconds.
