Just wondering if anyone else feels like this. Personally I'm following this community for interesting stuff around Linux and I don't care too much for a lost percentage or another. Today's an extreme example with 5 articles (steam share, 2x "10%", 2x "not actually 10%). This horserace journalism is rarely doing any good imho.

What do you think?

90% of everything is shit. journos are falling head over heels to prove that maxim.
