For those that missed Phoronix turning 22 years old last month when running a special to help support the site, a few readers mentioned recently they missed out on seeing the deal in time. Paired with the US Independence Day holiday and summer sales elsewhere, now through 10 July is a Phoronix Premium summer sale if wishing to view the site ad-free while supporting the daily open-source/Linux news coverage and relentless Linux hardware testing.

Now through end of day on 10 July (any time zone, not strict...) is a repeat of last month's Phoronix Premium birthday sale. Phoronix Premium allows you ad-free access to the site, multi-page articles on a single page, native dark mode, and other benefits while financially helping the site continue. The standard rate for Phoronix Premium is typically $45 USD per year or $250 for a lifetime subscription. For this Phoronix summer special, you can go premium at $30 USD per year or $150 for a lifetime subscription.

To take advantage of this deal, first ensure you need to be registered on the Phoronix Forums as the forums are what handles the subscription/user management aspect. There isn't any integrated sales support in there so the normal prices of premium subscriptions are listed there still. To get the discounted deals of $30 for a year subscription or $150 for a lifetime subscription, PayPal the amount of money to

(or you can use this PayPal link or Stripe). For those preferring not to use PayPal or just want to use a CC directly, Stripe is the preferred method if not wanting to deal with a PayPal account. Or if just wanting to provide a birthday/anniversary tip via those means, that's fine too and very much appreciated. Sending any amount extra will be treated as a tip or can be renewed for multiple years if desired, thanks! Then as soon as possible I will have activated your forum account to premium status. If your payment email address is different from your forum's registered email address, please include your forum username when making the payment. Custom corporate/company-wide subscriptions and more can be made available by contacting me or for any other other support options/considerations.

Thanks for your support considerations and stay tuned for a lot more exciting Linux hardware testing this summer. Back to Independence Day kernel benchmarking of Linux 7.2 and some interesting hardware reviews next week.
