Linux “Journalism” is in a Nose Dive
More than ever I believe very deeply that Linux “journalism” is in a nose dive of quality. Fewer and fewer “reporters” are going to the story or creating anything new, and instead have chosen the easy and lazy route of clickbait, virtue signaling journalism. It’s a well proven business model after all, and saves quite a bit of time.
