I'm doing my best right now to resist the urge to start an online magazine like https://www.lab6.com/ because I know it will never get a second issue.

@adi Lab6 is the best, I hope a new issue comes out soon.

What would prevent them with coming out with a new issue?

What other buttons?
@adi It's been over a month since the last issue, the others were one month apart.\nOne was a LibreWolf version of that animated "Get Firefox" gif that was all over the Web back in the day. The other one was a button for the NetSurf browser.

@adi @mckinley Probably when I will feel tired of coding and set-up a satisfying blogging solution I'll spend some time writing. My topics would include politics, philosophy, tech, social.

@adi @mckinley (#fdcebha)\nLet me put my unasked 2 cents. PDF is an awesome format. For printing. Not for reading. It practically attaches you to read on a big screen or a not-so-eco-friendly printed version. I know it's a hard choice. But, maybe, make some epub version too?
@adi @mckinley (#fdcebha)\nThat reminds me the Ubuntu Magazine. An open publication about an open system. And their pubs were gorgeous. But you could only read on PC. We can't even extract the text to create a text-only version to read on cell phones or e-reader. (the content was CC-BY)
@lohn @adi @mckinley I'm feeling stupid now. I went to read the lab6 magazine and that exactly what they talk about. Sorry to be too impulsive in my answer.
@lohn @adi PDF definitely has its problems. I like the idea of distributing publications as HTML files, either standalone or along with other assets in a tarball. HTML is readable on a wide range of devices, but you could easily run lynx -dump $URL to get a plaintext version.
