Once a Site About BSD and GNU/Linux, and After Months of Silence, LinuxBSDos.com Comes Back Only as a Slopfarm

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 07, 2025

It's very frustrating to see this one coming through the RSS feed this week:

We recently named and showed (not shamed) 2-3 former Linux sites that were quite dormant and suddenly came back, albeit only with LLM slop. Is LinuxBSDos another one? Did the domain LinuxBSDos.com decide to experiment with the latest toys and hype?

Maybe it's a "one-off" experiment. Maybe not. Time will tell... █
