He's been testing the waters with going independent for the last couple of years with his tech tech potato channel, and has collabed a lot with Wendell of Level1Techs which is a similarly sized channel, so I'd see it as more likely he's going to try go full time independent. Though it is always possible his experiences have convinced him the other way and he tries to join up with someone now.
