That is a truly outstanding article.  Thank you for the recommendation.
There may be some hope for IT journalism in the 21st Century, after all.

(For those whose Deutsch is as halting as mine, I recommend Google
Translate's results in this case as an aid.  The English translation in
this case works with only a few minor bobbles.)

That was a pleasant read, thanks for the link! I hope we'll be able
to see more and more well balanced articles like this one, written 
by informed individuals who adhere to factual reporting instead of 
stirring up useless emotion-laden fights over spilled milk.

Regards,
Urban
P.S.: 
That bit about Devuan technical support made me chuckle:

| Technische Hilfe erhält man in der Regel schnell, auch wenn sich
| ein beachtlicher Teil der Konversationen um eher esoterische und
| prinzipielle Fragen dreht.

Which roughly translates to:

| In general you get technical support in a timely manner, even if 
| a considerable part of the conversation revolves around more
| esoteric and principled questions.

I take that as a polite way to give us a reminder to always strive 
to keep the signal to noise ratio as high as possible and to let 
threads about conspiracy theories and other cruft quickly find their 
final destination in /dev/null.
