- https://www.linux.com/ (connected to the Linux Foundation, so NPOV)
- https://itsfoss.com/ (the non-news part is blog posts and release-notes copy-paste
- https://www.phoronix.com/ (no review process, personal news site)
- https://www.linuxadictos.com/ (just copies original release notes and blogs)
- https://www.altusintel.com/ (just copies original release notes and blogs)
