Your channel is responsible for a lot of cool things Ive been able to learn. You’ve helped contribute to a hobby that also propelled my career.
Thank you, sir.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

You are very welcome!

Hey Brian - thank you for everything you covered in 2023, I can't wait to see what's coming in 2024. I have personally learnt a lot from you and your channel, and your explanations of Docker have been invaluable - it has changed the way I work for the better. I wish you and your family a Happy New Year. Have a great one!

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

It is always my pleasure, and a very happy new year to you and yours.

@01:55 : i was watching your video while you were showing gratitude towards project authors , i suddenly saw a good recommendation in the sidebar and tried to click it only to realise it was not mine 🤣😁😂

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Well at least my video was good for something. Hahahah. Seriously though, what was the suggestion? Maybe I can help you find the video.

[@jasonmehlhoff8877]

Thanks for everything . Hope you have a great new year. Do you know of any open source family tree programs. The few I’ve looked at haven’t had a video update in years.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Thank you, and hope your new year is awesome. I'll see what I can find for family tree software. I know there are several out there, but not sure how recently they've been updated.

[@repairstudio4940]

Looking to try Mesh Central! 🎉

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

It is an awesome system.
