Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi. I have a category Little Tech Blogs in my rss reader where I put those cool niche blogs mostly about Linux, FOSS, programming, etc... Many of them I found by articles linked in this community, so I was wondering if you guys know about more blogs like that. By little I mean it's run by one person or a small group of people, no big website publishing daily content - it can be two articles a year. The criteria isn't necessarily strict - any blog that the Linux people finds interesting is worth checking for me :)

Here is a list of feeds that I already have:

Planets are (or maybe, used to be?) a good way to learn about people involved in projects, e.g.:

  • planet.mozilla.org
  • planet.gnome.org
  • planet.kde.org

I guess you get the gist.

Planets are a periodically updated collection of blogs on a topic that were very popular in the 2000s and early 2010s.

I still follow Planet KDE and Planet Debian, and can vouch for both. They're great for both learning about the development processes of those projects, and finding interesting blogs on unrelated topics that happen to have been written or linked by the contributors.
