LHB Linux Digest #24.01: Working with systemd, Private GitLab Server, PikaPods Review and More
We are already two weeks into 2024. I am not sure how you are progressing with your new year resolutions, but mine is going good so far ;)
There are several things planned for Linux Handbook this year. That includes a complete cloud bootcamp which should be published over the most part of this year.
Apart from that, there will be more reviews of self-hosted tools and services. Basically, I'll be sharing my experience with the tools I am using or exploring. This way, you'll know about new products and services that you may use in your current setup.
Yeah! 2024 is going to be a happening year for you and LHB both 😎
