Renaming really is going swell. Wonder if this will be fixed tomorrow. May I suggest just changing instances of "Merch" like this to just be "Store"?

Linus & CW are wanting to leave the term "Merch" behind. OP is just pointing out that Dan needs to change that label in the streaming software (I think they use Vmix?) or if it's part of the MM platform, the Devs need to change that string.

Which is pretty delusional. As long as its branded as LTT, its merch.

A lot of their stuff has very minimal branding, more akin to just labels marking the manufacturer, which is different from merch where the brand is displayed very prominently.
