I used to run a little #Linux magazine over at Medium. Surprisingly, it has had more than 200,000 views since we *stopped* producing content for it in 2021.

As I explore dipping my toes back into Linux and FOSS coverage, I'm curious what you all think about Medium in 2024?

(I haven't touched it in 3 years, and publishing platforms like this haven't been on my radar, so don't hold back with your opinions -- I'm genuinely curious).

Medium is not a place i would typically go for regular Linux content. I look for RSS feeds.

curious if you can put your content you posted on Medium on GitHub pages static site or Netlify?

@unicornCoder I can absolutely put that existing content anywhere, alongside the new content. Which won't be Medium.

(Also, I'm a huge RSS fan -- after all, I was hand-coding my RSS feed as one of the world's first 30 podcasters. We kinda have history!)

@killyourfm whenever i did a blog i used Quarto for most of the pandoc use and then posted there. Sure your needs will need a large server like Netlify or something.

your post has me thinking I should get my hand in the Linux content creation as well
