Yes! I'll make sure subscribers with subscription until the final issue stay active at least for few more months. Drop me an email cheng.soon at hackermonthly dot com and I'll reac…

You still buy individual issues from the website. I'm thinking of offering a bundle of every back issues for sale. Update: Now you can get all the back issues here https://gum.co/h…

Thanks, Patrick. Now I finally have the time to get my hands on Stockfighter!

As other comments have pointed out, not having the subscribers list is my non-negotiable terms if someone wants to take over. In fact, after I refunded everyone, I'll reset my serv…

Thank you so much. That meant a lot to me.

Thanks Kale, and your kind support over the years. And Yes everyone, Hacker Newsletter is excellent and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Thanks Jacques! I'm thinking of "open sourcing" Hacker Monthly. The process of making it, the InDesign template I use (and optimized throughout the years), the resources etc. That …

This is one of the reasons I didn't put Hacker Monthly up for sale when I've decided to shut it down. Our subscribers (a little over 10k) trusted us enough to provide us their cont…

Yup. You can still subscribe now and get all the previous issues for free.

Thanks. I won't be selling the site. I'll probably leave the site up (for as long as I can). There just won't be any new issue. People can still go to the site and buy digital/prin…

Thanks. Exactly how I felt about closing it and not selling to someone else.

Thank you.

May be I didn't do a good job promoting it :)

It is profitable. FYI, I'm living in a lower income country (Malaysia), and I would say my living expenses are pretty low. Money wasn't the issue. It's hard to explain but I just f…

Hey Ruben! How are you? :) Well, HM readership has been increasing from month to month in the past few years. But I agree with you on the content shared on HackerNews. There are st…

Spend less. I know Australia is an expensive country (and moving is out of the picture), But if you're able to cut down your spending by 50%, you'll be able to save enough money to…

This is great, Jacques! If I'm within your 1000KM radius, I would send an offer in a heartbeat. Though I don't think there's any project I have that would interest you, but would b…
