Why am I seeing this Ranked on source trust — PC Gamer

It ranks mainly on source trust: PC Gamer is the most reliable outlet we track on this subject, and is the only one on the story so far.

Single-sourced. Hacker News also has it, but tier-3 aggregators never count toward corroboration — they can show something is circulating, never that it is true.

Link-outLink-out, because only one organisation carries it and no first-party source is on it and the subject could not be identified from the text. Link-out means we point at the publisher and say nothing of our own.

Blended score 0.428 — every figure below is computed, none of it is editorial.
FactorWeightScore ContributionWhere it came from
Corroboration 0.35 0.39 +0.135 32% 1 independent org on the story. Tier-3 aggregators never corroborate — they can show something is circulating, never that it is true.
Source trustleads 0.25 0.75 +0.188 44% PC Gamer is the highest-trust source on this story. Trust is taken from the best source, not averaged.
Pickup rate 0.20 0.00 +0.000 0% One counted organisation, so there is no spread to measure — nothing has picked this up to set a rate.
Freshness 0.20 0.53 +0.105 25% Halves every 10 hours from the newest item on the story. This is the only factor that rewards a story for nothing more than being recent.

Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2 — Hacker News appears on this story and counts for nothing. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.
