Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Yahoo Groups shutdown on 12/15

 

No, I'm just a member. I was replying to your comment about setting up any possible new group on Google Groups, and suggested groups.io as an even better alternative. Chad is the moderator here. He doesn't seem interested in migrating the group elsewhere, but he might change his mind at some point in the future. Or someone else entirely might start a brand new group with the same focus.

Once Yahoo Groups close down at some point today, this mailing list is gone, and nobody will know what is happening re: starting a new group or not, so I'm just stating the obvious. If it DOES happen, it will be on one or the other of those two platforms, as there are no other really viable alternatives out there.

Or groups.io? Most of the groups seem to have migrated there.

When the lights go out here at some point today, I'd suggest that anyone from this group wondering if there's been a group set up elsewhere should do a search every so often for linuxnewbies or LINUX_Newbies on both groups.io and Google Groups, to see if a group has been set up on either platform. Just in case, y'know. ;)

Thanks for all your work Chad. As one of the owners of the once closely
related Linux group, I know how much work it was, even if the list has been
dead for a few years.

[LINUX_Newbies] Yahoo Groups shutdown on 12/15

 

Yahoo Groups is completely shutting down in three days.  As this group has seen minimal traffic for the last few years and the owner of the group is not in regular contact with me, I do not plan on trying to migrate this group to any other platform.

It's been wonderful to be a part of this community since I started on my Linux journey about many years ago.  Thanks to all who have been a part of that.
