Super bummer
tldr:
- life, work, family reasons for one of the guys. Nothing negative, he just has no time for the podcast anymore but will show up in their linux podcast from time to time in the future.
One of the few podcasts I listen to sometimes. Wishing them well and thanks for all of the hard work.
Dammit, that’s one of my favorite podcasts.
Support had been dwindling and ad revenue is nearly non-existent for Linux podcasts, so I totally understand why. Still, too bad. I guess I’ll bump my donation to Late Night Linux since I can’t really find another self-hosted podcast that’s worth listening to.
They did mention that Alex will join Linux Unplugged podcast occasionally to talk about self-hosted relevant things, plus they tend to all be talked about their experiences around self-hosted - especially in the bootleg edition.
Ah just another reminder as I get older and that all good things must come to an end.
Some people hate on them but they didn’t have to make this show. It definitely spurred conversations and projects to be better rather than some corporate overlords saying use our ecosystem.
Definitely gonna miss it and guess I’ll check out Linux unplugged every now and then
Aww, man, I’m conflicted here. On one hand, I’ve enjoyed their work for years and they seem like good dudes who deserve to eat. On the other, they’re AI enthusiast crypto-bros and that’s just fucking exhausting. I deal with enough of that bullshit at work
Edit: rephrase for clarity
Didn’t perceive the AI enthusiasm as too bad. At least they also covered self hosted LLMs and don’t seem like they fell completely for that hype.
The crypto stuff is difficult to stomach though. More of an issue on their other podcasts though.
I use to follow them, until I got bored of long stretches of bitcoin and tailscale promotion.
Tailscale deserves it, bitcoin absolutely does not
That’s a damn shame as it was the only real quality podcast focused on self hosting.
