I used to subscribe to it, but when Shawn Powers took over as editor, the content really suffered. As a result, I stopped subscribing some time after they dropped the print version.

Any ideas as to where to collect information similar to that provided by the magazine? (project ideas with examples, news, tips, etc) I've looked and there doesn't really seem to be a live magazine focused on LInux anymore - - - they're all doa. Maybe someone out there has some ideas. TIA Dee
Try LinuxQuestions.org ?? I'm not yet actively using this LQ resource (it's not a journal), but I do plan to use it (in addition to consulting the GTALUG forum :), once I get to installing debian Linux on my build-it-myself PC. The occasional emailed LQ e-newsletter I receive, does seem a bit moribund. Needs editorial refreshing. But the discussion forums online might be useful.

Linux Voice? https://www.linuxvoice.com/ Though it looks like that was discontinued a year ago and merged with Linux Magazine: http://www.linux-magazine.com/ I was a Linux Voice subscriber for a few years, and it was great. No experience with Linux Magazine though.

That's unfortunate. Well I decided to buy their digital archive download ($11.99 US). Every issue from 1994 to 2017 for US$11.99 seemed worth it. It appears to contain all the articles as html files. -- Len Sorensen

I just received an email stating they are trying to resurrect the magazine. I wonder if they will respond to any emails sent to either of the addresses listed in the email. I gave up on Linux Journal after they stopped publishing on paper. Like many subscribers of the day I tried to cancel my subscription and get my money back as I had no interest in reading a digital version of the magazine. When they stopped publishing on paper they also lost their customer service department. Many people, myself included, tried to contact them to cancel their subscription only to receive no response. I was able to put my subscription on hold for a while but the web page where I could do that wasn't maintained and eventually it told me that my start date had to be no later than a date that had already passed. I could no longer put my subscription on hold. I won't support the magazine, or their (claims of) trying to get the magazine operating again. -- Cheers!

I found the content suffered when Shawn Powers took over as editor. I too let my sub drop when they stopped the paper edition.
