It's not completely just you, although "worst article ever" is needlessly inflammatory and quite a stretch.

Anyone who has read LWN for any length of time will know Corbet's current preferred distro is Fedora. While LWN articles on the whole are extremely objective and professional there will be a smidgen of preference from time to time, which perfectly reasonable when an author is most familiar with their specific day to day system.

Anyone who followed Corbet's track on Fedora would know that he flames it quite a bit internally for breaking things left and right. It also ignores that he runs various other systems with those OS's also.

Reading that he gives Fedora a free pass is really really naieve.

Certainly not trying to imply Corbet gives Fedora (or any product) a free pass.
