alt Hacker NewsLWN is one of the, if not the single, highest signal tech publications around. I hope they're able to maintain a stable subscription service. Being user funded, and avoiding having to maintain allegiance to advertisers, is likely part of why their quality is so high.

I don't use Linux (on the desktop, I use it on headless machines), yet I still agree with this statement.
When I saw that title, I thought the note would be about their "incredible journey", fortunately that is not the case.
Super happy subscriber for years... One of those magazines that I open on a Sunday morning with a good cup of coffee and sleeping cats next to me before the family wakes up.
If you enjoy well-written technical content, please subscribe and support them. I hope they continue making the great articles.
Absolutely. Very happy 10+ years subscribed here and I'll keep subscribing.
(As someone pointed out in the comments, the title of this specific post could have been less heart-attack-inducing, but still... :) )
Agreed!

Not only that but lwn is one of the main sites that gets submitted to HN all year round (not daily, but maybe nearish to daily). So the audience here on HN has been exposed to it over the years. I'm not sure what more they could do to get new subscribers, I certainly hope they figure that out or how to get new ways to earn revenue without having to go the ad route.
