Quite sad to hear that Linux Journal is closing its operations effective Dec 31 (and the November issue is the last one). Victim of clickbait journalism and big brother advertising.
They do not have sufficient funds to cover refunding paid up subscribers but Linux Pro has stepped up to offer up to 6 months of their publication in lieu.

And the 2017 archive of back issues will be free this month
