  • Sorry if it came across like I was implying that you should have commented there first – that was definitely not my intention! I actually considered making a post on my instance about it too, because I know some people primarily browse local stuff and would likely miss a post from another instance.

    I just wanted to let you know it wasn’t just you and maybe encourage you to comment there, too, in the hope that more of us mentioning in each post that we’re having this problem might help lead to clues and a fix. 🙂








  • Idk anything about Linux forums, but as far as forums in general:

    Are there really so many people to frequent forums and provide answers to people who seem to be in trouble

    This is legitimately my husband’s favorite thing to do. He’s not into Linux, he’s into garden tractors and mowers, but he loves the enthusiast forums and Facebook groups he’s in and is very active.

    Generally, he loves helping people who want to learn, and specifically, he is nuts about helping people learn to care for their machines and save them from the junkyard. He will spend hours on the phone and days over email helping people troubleshoot things, purely for the joy of helping.

    And when he’s not helping somebody, he’s talking to other tractor nerds about how cool their tractors are and how best to take care of them! 😂🥰

    So yes, there are people who like to hang around to give help, some people just really, really, really love to help.
