Let's hope lwn doesn't suffer the same fate... if there are any LJ subscribers who don't subscribe to lwn, I hope they may take out a lwn subscription.

Thanks for thinking of us! LWN is not making anybody rich, but we're on reasonably solid ground for now. Despite what some folks are saying, the Linux community is willing to support at least some of the things it values. Our biggest problem at the moment is finding writers who can work at the level our readers expect.

Everyone, ask if your employer will sponsor your lwn subscription. mine does!

Jonathan, I'm one of your subscribers and it's worth every penny. Thank you for doing the awesome job of compressing the relevant events and changes in the Linux world into clear and concise articles and helping me navigate the complicated world of the kernel.

Keep up the good work!

Are there any other sites of note (apart from LWN)? Looking at LJ I feel that it's the kind of site I should have had in my bookmarks...

Phoronix.com

Not only do you get benchmarks, you also get general news about open source in new hardware.

^ THIS IS FROM 2002!

Sorry, just had a mini heart attack when I opened that and don’t want others to do the same

lwn?

https://lwn.net/

Referring to https://lwn.net/. It has a subscription plan to fully access their content at 7$/mo.

Linux Weekly News - https://lwn.net/

Linux Weekly News focuses on substantive technical content, like today's article on the Linux kernel's use of the switch statement: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/794944/a5770e282352a2e6/

Or today's article on the CTF debugging format. They're pretty much the only resource aimed at intermediate or advanced developers that's written to be highly technical but not academic.
