        Probably that if possible, you can link to original article from itsfoss. And possibly for all such news ( unless its overly bloated / behind a paywall )

          I shared the article through my link precisely because the site is “overly bloated” with ads…

          If that’s a problem, no trouble, I’ll share the original links from now on!

        Sorry my comment was really snarky - I apologise. Long day! I’ll do better in the future :)

        There has been criticism of this listicle format. Critics claim they are clickbait and machinated recycling of information/ideas. Listicles seem to exist to just get more ad impressions over entertaining and informing the reader.

        The original article on the original site feels a bit like that. Loads of ads, with just one link to the actual nixos website, mid-sentence, towards the bottom of the article (where the majority of readers never get to).
