LWN.net VS SaidIt.net

I can't resist pointing out that LWN (https://lwn.net/) has been dedicated, for many years, to the production of operating-system information that is not terrible. Have a look, and perhaps consider joining us :). - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

Honestly, you're probably best off just reading LWN: https://lwn.net/. They publish articles on bleeding-edge features of the kernel, often before they're even merged.
