Dang, what a menace! People will tolerate all kinds of abuse if they have an otherwise cool job. You see it all the time in sports and entertainment.

I was only vaguely aware of this guy. When he released his ratcheting driver gadget a while back, it popped up on a YT review channel that I do watch. Out of curiosity I looked into it.
This Linus guy immediately struck me as a weasel and a d-bag. I don't have any super powers of observation. People should trust their instincts better. Human instincts are bad compared to animals, but one thing we're all pretty naturally good at is detecting scumbags. Listen to your instincts, folks. His "charm" is as real as CheezWhiz.
Mask fit and machine settings can be tricky to get dialed in, and they make a big difference. There's a pretty good YouTuber with a channel called CPAP Reviews that may be useful for you. Your doctor and DME provider should be a good resource, and in many cases they are...buy sadly this can be hit or miss.
As I said, I have no super powers of observation and that everyone is born with good instincts on this. It's taught in classes on protecting yourself from predators: believe your instincts.
I counter your argument with this: some people get heavily invested in internet celebs and in order to protect their own egos will gaslight themselves in to believing "nah, he's a good guy".
