Fake Articles About GNOME

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 20, 2025

There are some real articles (many more to come) about a real release of GNOME.

Some people are too lazy to write about it, so they run to LLMs and produce slop.

GNOME 48 Linux desktop launches with performance boosts but System76’s Cosmic is a rising threat

Now even remotely real:

One of the best additions in this release is notification stacking

People who go to the front page of "BetaNews" are still presented with LLM slop instead of news:

One of the best additions in this release is notification stacking. If you’ve ever been bombarded with notifications from the same app, you’ll appreciate this change. Instead of a never-ending list, notifications are grouped together, making it easier to find what’s important.

We hope that the editor of "BetaNews" is still paying attention to what his staff is doing. Not only should Serial Sloppers (plagiarists) not get paid; they need to be sacked. They waste readers' time and misinform them. They contribute to a sea of misinformation.
