Lunduke Journal sale is back (for 1 day) because I'm a pushover.
September 12, 2022

Ok.  Just going to say this once.

A while back The Lunduke Journal had a big old sale.

Then, after the sale ended, a few people asked me if they could still take part in it (because they got paid on the 1st and wanted to take advantage of the discount).

Then, yesterday, I announced the “Use DOS for a Week” challenge we’ll be doing this week… and I got a few more emails from people who wanted to join in the fun we'll be having here on Lunduke.Locals.com… and they realized that they get a complimentary account over here with a Founding Member or Lifetime Subscription. And they wondered if that sale price was still available.

You know what? I’m a total pushover.  So I let them have the deal.

But, here's the thing: I couldn't very well give those folks the deal without offering it to everyone else.  That just wouldn't be right.

So, tell you what. The sale price is available again. For one day.

There won’t be any extensions to this. End of day today (Monday)… prices go back to normal.  No reminders.  No extensions.

See the Lunduke Journal About Page for more details on all of the various perks

Founding Member Yearly Subscription: Only $75 (Normally $125)

With a Founding Member membership, you get all the same goodies as above, plus:

  • A monthly video hangout with Lunduke & other Founding Members

  • Full access to both Lunduke.Locals.com and Lunduke.Substack.com

  • Founding Member Email Newsletter

  • With more perks coming (including a massive file server containing hundreds and hundreds of Lunduke-produced podcasts and videos).

Go to Lunduke.substack.com/subscribe, select “Founding Member”, and you’re good to go!  Or you can follow the instructions here for doing it via Locals.  Either way works dandy.

Lifetime Subscription: Only $200 (This is a crazy deal!)

This deal is bonkers. The regular price is $350.

You get all the goodies and perks of both the Standard and Founding Member subscription levels… FOR LIFE. You never need to pay another penny.

Not only do you directly support The Lunduke Journal, but you give yourself one heck of a good deal — you won’t miss out on the new perks that get added every single month.

You’ll want to sign up for a Lifetime Subscription via Lunduke.Locals.com:

After you finish signing up, your Substack and Locals accounts will be set to full, Founding Member level access… for life.

 
Signing up for a Lifetime Subscription via Locals should look something like this.

If you have any difficulties, simply reply to this email and Lunduke will help you out.

Note: Be sure to drop me a private message on Locals (or send me an email) letting me know what your email address is on Substack so I can properly set your account there.

Seriously.  Only for today.

Prices all go back to normal tomorrow.  Which... I mean... is still a good deal.  😎

No reminders.  No extensions.  Take advantage of it, save some money.  Or not.  Your call.  🤣

The futility of Ad-Blockers

Ads are filling the entirety of the Web -- websites, podcasts, YouTube videos, etc. -- at an increasing rate. Prices for those ad placements are plummeting. Consumers are desperate to use ad-blockers to make the web palatable. Google (and others) are desperate to break and block ad-blockers. All of which results in... more ads and lower pay for creators.

It's a fascinatingly annoying cycle. And there's only one viable way out of it.

openSUSE says "No Lunduke allowed!"

Those in power with openSUSE make it clear they will not allow me anywhere near anything related to the openSUSE project. Ever. For any reason.

Well, that settles that, then! Guess I won't be contributing to openSUSE! 🤣

Amiga Lifetime Wall & March Lunduke Journal Stats!

Hello all of you amazing Lunduke Journal subscribers!

With March now behind us, I wanted to give you crazy kids a quick “behind the scenes” look at the stats for The Lunduke Journal. Because Inside Baseball stuff is fun.

The Amiga Wall!

But before we dive into charts and numbers… behold! The brand new 6th Lifetime Subscriber Wall of Shame Awesomeness! The AmigaOS 3.1 Wall!

 

Every Lifetime Subscriber Wall (which I show at the end of each video) is a real screenshot from a different computing platform. Mostly retro. All awesome.

 

If you’d like to see your name listed on the new AmigaOS 3.1 wall, grab a Lifetime Subscription (if you don’t already have one) and toss me an email. I update the walls about once each week with new names.

The last few Lifetime Walls filled up incredibly quickly. So if the Amiga Wall interests you, I wouldn’t wait too long. Hint, hint.

March 2026 Stats

The big news: Total “views” were way, way up in March.

A fair bit beyond what was anticipated. A hair over 19 million during the month.

 

That’s in total, across all platforms. As usual, the audio podcast and X lead the way in terms of total views/listens for shows (by quite a lot).

Interestingly, we saw significant “views” growth on even the smallest platforms in March (Facebook and TikTok).

Free subscribers also took a major jump in March, with the largest one month gains ever (I’m pretty sure, certainly the largest this year or last). Up 7,623 over the month before.

 

Again, new subscribers grew across the board. The biggest gains were seen on X, but all platforms saw a significant bump.

Hard to complain about that!

The top 3 shows for March were all focused on the Age Verification laws:

While those were the top 3… it’s worth noting that the top 10 (and, really, the top 15 or so) shows for the month were all incredibly close in terms of viewership numbers.

As always, a huge thank you to all of The Lunduke Journal subscribers. You make all of this possible.

Lifetime Wall Number 6, Plus How to Access MP4s & Forum

A few quick reminders for all of you amazing Lunduke Journal subscribers:

First: If you have any kind of payed subscription (Monthly, Yearly, or Lifetime) there are a bunch of cool perks available to you. MP4 Downloads, PDF eBooks, and access to the Lunduke Journal Forum. All the details on how to gain access to everything is right here.

Enjoy.

Second: At the end of this next week I’ll be unveiling “Lifetime Subscriber Wall of Shame” number Six at the end of all new Lunduke Journal videos.

 

At that same time I will be updating and permanently locking down Walls 1 through 5.

If you are already a Lifetime Subscriber, and would like to be added to the new Wall number 6 (or to one of the couple remaining spots on Walls 4 and 5), email me (bryan at lunduke.com) with how you would like your name to be displayed (full name, first name only, nick name… any way you like).

  1. CRT Linux Pico Wall: Full

  2. DOS Word Wall: Full

  3. Win 3.11 Notepad Wall: Full

  4. MacOS 9 Wall: 2 Spots Left

  5. PalmOS Wall: 1 Spot Left

  6. Mystery Wall: Open

Those final spots on the MacOS and PalmOS Walls are first come first served. The first people to request those spots get them.

Everyone else will roll over into Wall 6. Which is a secret, retro computer platform. You’ll dig it.

If you have already contacted me regarding being added to one of these walls (or changing the way your name is displayed), I’ve already got you on the list for the changes later this next week.

If you don’t already have a Lifetime Subscription, grab one and get yourself on the wall.

It’s pretty sweet.

4th Wall Almost Full, $89 Lifetime Deal Ends Very Soon

Woo-hoo! The 4th Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriber Wall of Shame Awesomeness is almost full!

  • That means that, within the next day or two, the massively discounted Lifetime Subscriptions will go back to their normal price. So if you wanted to snag the $89 / $99 Lifetime Sub (instead of paying $300), now’s your last chance.

  • If you are already a Lifetime Subscriber and want to be added to the 4th (or the start of the 5th) wall, email me (bryan at lunduke.com). There are only a couple of spots left on Wall 4.

  • The new Lifetime Wall designs are locked and loaded, and will make their grand debut at the end of all new shows starting either Friday or Monday.

I also wanted to take a moment to thank all of the non-Lifetime Subscribers. The Lifetime Subs may get a little extra attention at the end of the shows… but every subscriber (Monthly & Yearly) helps to make this work possible.

All of you rule.
