Site itself is fine, but has many poorly-curated ads. Stories are in good faith and generally informative, but not always well-researched.

An excellent source of tech news.

Decent blog, but often contains repetitive articles to draw more views. The forums have some pretty biased and stupid people.

Great Linux/Unix and open source-related wesite.
2
Inadequate coverage, favoritism.
Helpful
Useful and trustworthy site about Linux and BSD, specially LInux/BSD support for 3D graphics. The only problem is that this website publishes a huge number of stories (in an apparent attempt to gain page views and ad clicks) and not all of them are very relevant.

Phoronix loves benchmarking & tech details, with performance focus, especially graphics. At times the common practice of accepting defaults, means distro's were penalised for options increasing data safety and integrity. Interesting articles. This is not like normal PC mag, but closer to Anandtech than PC Magazine
5
If there's A Windows mag and a Macintosh mag, then you can consider this the Linux mag counterpart.

Great source of information about everything Linux.
4
Sensationalist but generally accurate.
