My thoughts

  It's kind of weird how someone who was just so influential over the pc community, with his name mentioned left and right on the daily, is moving on with life. We all remember those videos where Linus would talk about the Fractal Josh in his videos, leaving a sense of superstition. I wish Josh the best, and though I guess this isn't technically tech news, I feel like it is something the community should hear about.

Some of the stuff he did to Linus.

 

Is there a supercut of those? Because I'd watch the shit out of it.

 

What happened to the video where @Slick pretended to quit on Linus in the middle of a video? For some reason I thought Fractal Josh had put him up to it.

I guess you could say Fractal has been Fractured by his departure.

I was wondering what he was up to since I haven't seen him on YT for a hot minute. I still remember the ads he did with Kyle (Bitwit), they were really good xD

I liked his content with Kyle and Jay, etc.

 

His name mentioned on the daily?  Huh?  I think you overestimate his celebrity status, or you're a stalker.  Not sure.

 

He's just a guy working for a company and making some videos.  That's how I see it.


Wish him the best in his future endeavors.
