I think his youtube channel is perfectly fine. His videos are mostly well done and to the point, demonstrating plugins effectively and usually quite thoroughly.
This is the first time I've seen him slip up a bit, going into the clickbaity stuff. Though I usually only check his plugin reviews for quick audio examples mainly. Just to see what is available and possibly worth investing some time in checking out.

You most definitely don't need this plugin at all. I know you have a bunch of compressor plugins already available. I mainly bought it just to slowly get rid of my Plugin Alliance GAS (I still have a bunch of those 1$ vouchers) and I happened to like the amount of control this compressor gives me. I thought I could make it my go-to for all basic compression tasks but the User Interface is kinda frustrating somehow. I really dislike how the only clean post gain and pan settings are in the top right corner of the plugin. I know, it's silly to get annoyed by such small things but hey that's me.. also, it's still rather buggy. I've had numerous crashes in projects where I have many instances of this particular plugin, though I haven't been able to pinpoint why and how it crashes. The vintage tube model is still broken and causes weird artifacts when you send it very low level audio signals (below -30dBFS).
Besides, after getting a Softube Console 1 mk3 I've forced myself to use that as my go-to for all mixing tasks (which I'm still struggling with!).
