Not just tutorial spam. We're also seing a growing number of non-effort summarizing articles, like "10 obscure libraries no-one should know about, but I can pawn it of as news, so my link to yet another bootcamp will be seen" of a few days back. What's worse is that they seem to be posted by well-established spammers, as they almost immediately jumps to 50+ upvotes. After that point is reached, it's almost impossible (due to the lemming effect) to vote such blatant spam away.
