From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's mostly reading off news of off aggregators

Well what else do you expect from Linux News. Also his channel is based on the accessibility of Linux, if you don't like that, maybe DistroTube is your thing, not really news focused, but definitely more hardcore Linux.

mixed with the usual tuber tropes like padded top X lists, clickbaity titles and the like.

Hard disagree there, I don't think his videos are clickbaity at all. His titles and thumbnails perfectly describe the content of the video

Distrotube has no journalistic integrity. I want to like him, but he is so willing to ignore the facts for his spin on things I refuse to watch him anymore.
