Recommended Linux news sources?

What news and information sources would people recommend for keeping up with Linux news and developments? (I don’t mean only Fedora specifically, more the Linux landscape in general.)

Generally, I prefer text to video.

Linux weekly news is very high quality reporting https://lwn.net
Its comment section well worth reading as well.

They cover the linux kernel, languages and major annoucements.

I’ve actually started picking up physical magazines whenever I come across them at ether Microcenter or Barns & Noble. Usually they have a copy of ether Linux Magazine or Linux Format. Too bad that just after I picked up my first issue of Linux Format, they announce that they are ending publication of they’re paper magazines :face_with_spiral_eyes:. I like that can just throw them in the car and read them where ever, no WIFI needed. I find it cute how Linux Magazine still includes ISO discs with two distros on one disc, some times I actually use them. I feel like Linux Magazine has more of a professional/enterprise focus where as Linux Format feels more focused on hobbyists or average desktop users. They both have fun Raspberry Pi projects that I enjoy taking a crack at. I’d recommend giving both a read regardless!

The Register is always fun. OSes News • The Register for articles a little more OS-specific

planet.kde.org and planet.gnome.org are frequently updated with interesting things going on around those desktops.

Oh, and of course distrowatch.com - watch out for DistroWatch Weekly every monday.

The Register is a bit controversial, because it was taken over by M$ and they enforce many M$ related news everywhere.

*The Register* is owned by Situation Publishing. Do you have any evidence that Situation Publishing is owned by M$?
El Reg often posts articles critical of M$. And they are funny. I’ve never seen anything by M$ that is funny. Other than Windoze of course.
