I hope the remaining list subscribers are all well, and still having fun with Linux. Lots of great memories of both YLUG and WYLUG, but agree it's past time to shut down the lists, which haven't been used for many years (I didn't even realise I was still a subscriber!).<br>

I don't think I need lists specifically, but it would be quite nice to<br>
talk to people who share similar interests - I think we as a society<br>
has moved onto social media. Everything I want to talk about with<br>
Linux people, I use LinkedIn, Reddit, etc.<br>

<br>
- I'm sad it went dormant<br>
- But overjoyed that that's because Linux became so mainstream that it became unneccessary<br>
- Still using Linux as my primary platform, daily<br>
- ... no longer using Slack, though<br>
- Don't play games much on it<br>
- But I can get everything I want to play on Linux, which is awesome<br>
- Consoles are so much easier, though<br>
- I'm sad to see YULG ML go, although empirically it was already gone<br>
- But I'm super glad to hear from some folks again<br>
- I was a Linux admin professionally for 10 years<br>
- Then stopped for a few to do what I really wanted<br>
- Now am doing some Linux admin as a side gig beside my main job<br>
<br>
All in all, good times<br>
