I like Techlore (https://www.techlore.tech if you don’t know) and I usually regard them as one of the most impartial and most trustworthy Youtubers out there. But for the past few months, I couldn’t help noticing their somewhat heavy bias towards some of their video sponsors. Still, everybody has to eat right?

This time though, it looks like Synology flew them over to Taiwan, and if you watch their video at the event, it’s wall-to-wall Synology shilling. I’m really disappointed.

      Thanks for the detailed breakdown, I think I get the broad strokes now.

      It’s difficult to parse when your brain defaults to “one of these parties are unfairly maligned” - when the truth is they’re both shitty.

      It’s a shame. Some years ago I got a lot of value from both websites, but haven’t really followed digital privacy trends lately. It’s such a time sink to gauge the value of everything by yourself.

          I used to watch Techlore too, but the final nail in the coffin for me was saying he was using stock Android
