Linux.com Has Been Outsourced to a Private Company (Linux Foundation (LF) Contractor) and It's Recycling the Domain for Non-Linux Purposes

A contractor paid over $2,500,000 per year seems to be running Linux.com these days. The terrifying thing is, there’s no actual content added, just links, and it's seldom about Linux; they’ve turned the domain into a sort of linkfarm of the so-called ‘Linux’ Foundation. It’s worth noting that the ‘Linux’ Foundation has gone very quiet lately, like it was struck by lightning or simply does not wish to be seen. “They are probably trying to kill off the brand,” one reader told us, “at least that is how they have been acting under Microsoft Zemlin.” With only 2 posts in 2 weeks, and moreover everything being just an LF link/plug (not an actual story), it’s hard to see how Linux (kernel or GNU/Linux) gets promoted at all. Why did they fire all the writers and all the editors in early 2019? The site used to be a very valuable resource with information and news about GNU/Linux.
