The Lunduke Journal Affiliate Program
Earn 50% per subscription.
September 29, 2024
  • Looking for a way to earn revenue from your blog, podcast, YouTube Channel, website, or social media account?
  • A monetization option which has absolutely nothing to do with Big Tech?

Well, buckle up, Buttercup.  Because The Lunduke Journal Affiliate Program is available to anyone -- bloggers, YouTubers, Podcasters, developers, user group leaders, or simply Social Media users -- who would like to get paid for promoting The Lunduke Journal.

How it works is simple:

  1. Send potential new subscribers to The Lunduke Journal using a custom URL.
  2. If that person purchases a paid subscription using your link, you get 50% of the subscription revenue for the first year of the subscription.

Not joking.  You and The Lunduke Journal split the subscriptions.  50/50.

 

How To Become an Affiliate

 

Interested?  Here's how to become an Affiliate:

  1. Create an account on Lunduke.Locals.com (free or paid).
  2. Email "bryan at Lunduke.com" with the subject "Lunduke Journal Affiliate Request", and include following details:
    1. The email address you use with your Locals.com account.
    2. A brief description of where you plan to promote The Lunduke Journal (blog, social media, YouTube, Rumble, podcast, forums, sky writing, etc.).  Include a link if applicable.

That's it!  If you are approved to be part of The Lunduke Journal Affiliate Program, you will be contacted via email -- which will include your affiliate link (which you will use to send potential subscribers to The Lunduke Journal).

 

Affiliate Program Details

 

Here's all the details.

  • You earn 50% of every referred subscription for 12 months.
    • Example 1: A Monthly Subscription ($6) will earn you $3 per month, for 12 months (for a total of $36 over the year).
    • Example 2: A Yearly Subscription ($54) will earn you $27 right up front.
  • Seriously.  50%.  You split the subscription evenly with The Lunduke Journal.
  • Payouts happen automatically -- handled entirely by Locals -- at the end of every month and are deposited via Stripe.
  • You don't need to be a big podcast or blog in order to take advantage of this.  Each request to join the Affiliate Program is considered on a case by case basis.
  • Participation in the Affiliate Program can be terminated at any time, should the need arise (such as if the Affiliate misrepresents The Lunduke Journal in some extreme way -- I don't anticipate needing to exercise this, but it's worth mentioning).
  • There is an absolute mountain of free material and subscriber exclusive perks (articles, videos, PDF eBooks, and more) which can be used to promote The Lunduke Journal.

If you have any additional questions, simply email "bryan at Lunduke.com".

Asahi Linux Drops MIT License for GPL to Spite Omarchy

Even more bizarre: Asahi accuses "bad faith actors" of "exploiting" the open source code... by "lifting" it (read: stealing).

"No one is seriously considering" Rust Clones says Fedora Developer

"Deliberate breakages and incoherent incompatibilities make [Rust CoreUtils Clones] a non-starter... We're probably not ever going to switch to it in Fedora."

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! 🤣

LCOS Notes 1.0 — Markdown notes with a classic desktop feel

This is my contribution to the Lunduke Computer Operating System.

My goal - an Obsidian like Markdown editor that follows the GUI Aesthetic of 90’s software consistent with the LCOS.

No accounts, no telemetry, no need to be online. All your data lives on your system in markdown files - which are just text files that any editor can also use/edit.

No lock in of any kinds.

Features include:

  • Wikilinks, backlinks, aliases and full-text search.
  • Daily notes, templates and quick capture to today’s note or Inbox.
  • Tags, properties and an outline for navigating long notes.
  • Reading view with tables, checkboxes, highlights, callouts and embedded notes and images.
  • Renaming and moving notes with link updates, plus Archive and Supersede commands.

The 1.0.0 package for LCOS 1.0 is available now:

3 Days Left to get your name into LCOS 1.0’s About Window!

Holy imminent operating system release, Batman!

Three things worth knowing:

  1. Saturday, October 31st is the last day to get your name into the LCOS About Window by picking up a Lifetime Lunduke Journal Subscription.

  2. Saturday, October 31st is also the last day when Lifetime Subscriptions are massively discounted. (Crazy, how those two dates line up! What a coincidence!)

  3. Sunday, November 1st is the official release date for LCOS 1.0!

Want your name in the About window for the Lunduke Computer Operating System 1.0? You’ve got about 3 days left to make it happen!

Here’s what to do:

  1. Go to this page and pick up a Lifetime Subscription (aka “One Time Contribution with Lots of Perks”).

  2. Within a few hours, you’ll receive a confirmation email from yours truly with all the details.

  3. Reply to that email with how you want your name displayed in the LCOS 1.0 About Window (nick name, first name, or full name are all aok).

Just be sure complete step 3 before midnight (Central Time) on Saturday, October 31st so it definitely makes it onto the final LCOS 1.0 build! My advice? Do this by Friday, October 30th so there’s no chance you miss it!

Huge thank you to everyone who has been supporting The Lunduke Journal and LCOS! You make all of this possible!

LCOS 1.0 Ships on November 1st!

A release date has officially been selected!

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) 1.0 will ship on November 1st… just two weeks from now!

A few quick tidbits worth mentioning:

Worth repeating: If you want your name in the LCOS About Window (see the screenshot below), you only have through October 31st to grab a Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal and make that happen.

Huge thank you to everyone who has contributed with both hardware testing and financial support. We’ve had absolutely tremendous momentum over the last few months, and that wouldn’t have been possible without all of you.

LCOS 0.9.3 has Landed! Plus: How to Help.

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) is flying towards the official, 1.0 release — with version 0.9.3 now available for testing!

Between now and 1.0, LCOS is laser focused on a) fixing bugs and b) making sure it runs (and runs well) on as much hardware as possible.

Right now, LCOS needs your help. Here’s how:

  1. Test the latest LCOS release on your hardware. Hit any snags? Report them on GitHub, the Lunduke Forum, or via DM on X.

  2. Donate to LCOS (and The Lunduke Journal), so that we can expand our hardware testing lab (among other expenses).

If you haven’t already, watch the LCOS Roadmap video, to get an idea for where we’re heading (in 1.0 and beyond).

Then check out this page, for details on how to support LCOS & The Lunduke Journal (and get your name on the LCOS 1.0 About window in the process).

A huge thank you to everyone who has already contributed (in both ways)! With your help, we are making LCOS into the best gosh darned system in all the land.
