I fully agree that downvotes is a negative. I’m not trying to be punny either. We want quality to take off, but we don’t need downvotes to signal anything from disagreement to disinterest to trolling. Just report trolls - and if enough people report, it could be temporarily hidden till a moderator reviews it. Of course, this can be abused, too, but if reports aren’t visible and the threshold is set reasonably, it could be better than what we have had.
Absolutely. I use Miniflux and clients on various devices to get the sync feature. I mostly have tech and game news there, though.
The_Donald was not about political opinions. It was a hate farm that made neofascists out of people who came for the lulz. By all means let’s have actual conservatives discuss politics as a counterpoint to more liberal views, but smack the fascists down - because it’s the only way to truly have a tolerant society and civil discourse: Intolerance as politics must not be tolerated. If that basic rule is ignored, everything else fails.
See the paradox of intolerance.
I was just checking out the site on my iPad. Only the top image loads and the rest are white boxes. I disabled all content blockers and reloaded but the problem persisted. It might still be a local problem, but now you have a heads-up that something MIGHT be wrong.
Another Zorin OS here. I was surprised and delighted by how little it gets in your face. Updates also seem extremely fast compared to the (many!) other distros I’ve tried. Unless there’s a kernel update, there will just be a little notification at boot asking “There are these updates. Do you want to update now or later?” - and I always choose now because it’s so fast and gets out of your way. I also appreciate the defaults.
@justhach I could have picked Aeropress as well. After too much of it, though, the bidet comes in handy once again!
