Articles which insults the FSF/GPLv3 seem to always get very highly voted on ycombinator. I read phoronix and I hadn't noticed a FSF-bias.
On the other hand, the stories also all seem true. There really is a serious problem with being attached to the FSF being a liability, and RMS really has held GCC back, and is (in my opinion) the main reason clang/llvm has been able to move ahead in some areas (in particular tool support), where for years RMS explicitly rejected any patch which would make gcc "tool-friendly".
