      I think it’s a combination of reposting on Lemmy, multiple communities posting similar stories, and news sites regurgitating results from other sites like it’s fresh news.

        Agree. My gripe with this article is that I’ve seen it posted on ~6+ communities. I love that Linux is beating windows in gaming benchmarks, but I think the title sensationalizes it the out performance a slight bit.

          I swear most lemmy users will just defend the reposting to death. I’ve been complaining about it since the beginning (huge problem on the lemmynsfw instance) and how people don’t seem to grasp how “federation” works, how everyone sees their damn constant reposts in every instance. Worse part is usually the same user/bot/script posting it everywhere.
          Oh an instance is defederated? Well sucks to suck, but I bet at least one of their users will post it there if they have a relevant community.
