    Some people say he quit after he got his upgrade, I think linus made his upgrade the next one in a kind of "no you won't get away before I give you this upgrade" move as a reward for all the years working together, I mean look at the goodbye video, and you can see linus at the verge of crying half the time

On camera people show their best selves, if the end result is a disrespectful interaction between Linus and Taran on camera; then most likely it is worse off camera. If they show their dislike and disrespect for each other, knowing that Taran is leaving after the upgrade, it makes one wonder if Taran is really quitting or simply being fired for a better replacement,afterall LTT has grown quite a lot.

    I love that he bought an IKEA desktop, but didn't get the corresponding frame for the desk, and doesn't like how unstable it is. I have that desk, with the correct frame, and I have two 34" ultrawides, a laptop, docking station, and xlr mic with boom arm all on the desk, and it doesn't wobble in the least.

      Yeah it's the frame that gives it all of it's strength. Like somehow it seems to me that people just don't get how structures work.

      Agree that it should be quite obvious that the plate on its own is not sturdy.... But I would also not be surprised if Taran had a very particular reason for not using the frame. Like that the frame blocks his armrests or he wanted to recycle the legs. He also said that it was temporary and whatever he said the next thing was going to be, it sounded more sturdy.

      True. I just build mine yesterday and the top is some wobbly shit in it self. Hey btw. How is the top handling the boom arm mount etc? I’m afraid mine will make a mark when fully extended and what about adding a monitor arm? 🤔

    That new blue table top looks like a BEKANT table top. It’s designed for the BEKANT underframe which has additional structural support underneath so it doesn’t bow and bend. I would not recommend your combination long term. We use these in the office and are plenty strong enough.
