By the site admin's own admission: you get special treatment. This shows that they practice selectiveness and favouritism, which is no better than any other sites that they have criticed heavily in the past.
You have never understood my thinking or motivations so unsurprisingly hadn't a clue this time. Have you never heard the expression to "give someone enough rope to hang themselves"? You both have done that rather spectacularly! In fact I was planning to post this morning something like . . . "Have y'all embarrassed yourself enough yet? Is it time to put this thread out of its misery?" Mutual ego stroking was the solution which just perpetuates the delusion . . .
But as golinux has said, I actually contribute nothing here and actually have no right to complain about how the site is administered. I can accept that and it's why I am voting with my feet."
Good grief! What a drama queen! Exit left or stick around. The choice is yours. The injured party here is not your ego but the free software community who has suffered your hissy fits.
Also note - it has not been closed. Consider that if I had made this thread, the admin would have intervened to get the last word and closed by now.
Actions or non-actions have purpose though in this case I think the point has fallen on deaf ears . . .

Just curious . . . Have you called Lenovo customer support?

Modern man lacks communication.
There is a lot of noise but little communication.
Forums are usually interested in the number of user clicks.
Not this one . . .
On one of the forums, the admins tried to solve this problem . . .
There is no external solution to human stupidity . . . that is an individual journey. Not many takers . . .

We do not delete accounts. If you no longer wish to participate that is your choice. If you want to make sure that you won't ever be able to again if temptation arises, just scramble your password.

Thank you for so clearly revealing the bias for all to see.
Ralph yes I'll strive for the three Ps, while your lunatic fringe, right wing crony gets free reign ...
At Devuan we value contributions to a common cause of which zero has come from you. The dev1galaxy.org (almost) No Code of Conduct states:
4. We accept everyone's contributions, we don't care if you're liberal or conservative, black or white, straight or gay, or anything in between! In fact, we won't bring it up or ask (nor should you).
All views are deluded and we will live in disharmony and conflict until we can move beyond them. Gandhi got it right. Stupid humans attached to their views never will. That is the source of all suffering in the world . . .

@blackhole . . .
MiyoLinux is responsible for one of Devuan's most popular derivatives. If you knew anything at all about Devuan you would know that . . .
https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=9
https://sourceforge.net/projects/miyolinux/
IOW MiyoLinux might be going through something so acting out but on his worst day he has more value to Devuan than the paltry commentaries made by an occasional visitor. So yeah . . . I cut him some slack . . .
#1009 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Unity desktop environment » 2023-02-05 03:02:24
Doesn't unity look similar to Gnome 3?
I have no idea what gnome looks like. I abandoned that ship with the arrival of gnome3. The desktop image provided on the link has all the subtlety of Fisher-Price on steroids and caters to the ADD generation. I don't know how anyone could do serious work in that environment. Gives me a headache . . .
Devuan is not soliciting additional desktops and I am not sure it would even be offcially included unless it gets passed down to us from Debian.

#1013 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Unity desktop environment » 2023-02-01 17:36:14
You are free to port Unity to Devuan and offer it to the community.
#1014 Re: Forum Feedback » why don't we get automatically subscribed to our own threads? » 2023-02-01 17:31:11
. . . but since FluxBB is deliberately feature-limited and seemingly no longer maintained I guess those are unlikely.
^^^ This.
In addition . . . minimalism rules here. There is no one-size-fits-all solution to subscribing to threads. That is left to the user.

#1016 Re: Devuan » Meet the Daedalus sapphire theme » 2023-02-01 03:37:27
Sapphire theme is done
I don't know if Devuan has a particular emphasis on LXQt or not, but hopefully people get some use and enjoyment out of these.
Quite a few Devuan users have LXDE or LXQt installed so your themes will definitely be appreciated. Maybe you'd want to open an account on our git and add them there?
I really like both Devuan and LXQt as projects, but due to complete lack of coding skill this is the only way I can contribute anything...
Ditto. I am pretty good at playing with colors, editing/writing and keeping track of Devuan's history etc. I also took care of the websites for many releases but have now passed that task on to someone else. I will do the wallpaper for Excalibur but no more theming beyond that. Perhaps you'd want to take some of that on for XFCE? Please contact me on irc or by email if you have an interest in that.

#1019 Re: Devuan » Meet the Daedalus sapphire theme » 2023-01-31 05:34:58
Greetings Azuma Hazuki!
I have been following your LXQt thread with great interest. Thank you for porting the themes to a WM environment!
No need to pull down anything from daedalus to get the themes. All of the raw files and documentation for all the themes are collected in our git store
The base colors of chimaera and daedalus are extremely different. The deepsea theme of chimaera is greenish and murky. This was my inspiration. The sapphire theme of daedalus evokes the brilliant colors of the sun drenched seas surrounding the Greek Islands where Daedalus was born.
That being said, the 2 themes share a light blue element so I recycled the icons and images from the Clearlooks-Phenix-Deepsea and the gnome desktop icons. All the other elements and icons share there respective signature colors. It works well on the desktop but a WM might not use the features that focus on the primary theme color but rather just the shared elements.

Thanks HoaS.
Anyone with connected brain cells would have recognized the danger of AI instantly. Sadly, most humans seem to lack that capability . . .

Do you even need to ask?

@golinux: I think antiX is using https://gitlab.com/antix-contribs/slimski. I thought Devuan was as well tbh.
Nope. First I've heard of slimski . . . that I can remember . . . LOL!
