Machines work for free. Humans are becoming obsolete except for replication which has long since overpopulated the planet. Humans think they are smart. Yet our fascination with shiny new toys has gotten us to where we are and we have learned absolutely nothing. Humans better get a clue or extinction will take care of us. The final solution . . . finally

Well . . . look what the cat dragged in!

We give a lot of leeway to those who use this forum to beat their favorite drum but contribute little to nothing to Devuan's existence. At some point, enough is enough. I doubt that many forums would have the patience that this thread has enjoyed for so many years.

All the best to you quickfur . . . wherever you land!

@tux_99 . . . You've been here for a little over a month and we are just getting to know you and you, us. Perhaps you might want to rethink the use of flippant, sarcastic comments towards individuals until you get to know more about Devuan's history and also those of us who have nurtured this distribution for over a decade. Just sayin' . . .

@Xe . . . welcome to Devuan!

To put it another way . . .

There can be no offense when none is taken.

I wish I could unsee that . . .

@ alphalpha . . . Yes, FluxBB is a good fit for Devuan. The software was old even when it was first installed. I have no idea if there have been any "official" updates since then but there have been some custom modifications. Here's the story of how we got to FluxBB . . .

Devuan's first forum was Discourse. It was not very well received by Devuan users. So I created and self-hosted Dev1Galaxy as the "The Officially Unofficial Devuan Forum!" alternative. Two or so years later, Discourse was mothballed and Dev1Galaxy became the "Officially Official Devuan Forum!".

As long as it works, why would there be any reason to change it? SNS is not exactly Devuan's style . . .

@KnightTemplar . . . Welcome aboard the freedom train!

Note that this is a rewrite of my previous post here which suffered from my foggy memory . . .

Note that "The Joke Thread" has been unblocked since 2025-02-27. I was rather surprised that no one figured that out. Then a new user unaware of the history gave it a try and brought it back to life.

As long as "The Joke Thread" does not become the most active one day after day like it has in the past, it will remain open.

All things in moderation . . .

This is the first I've heard about this patch . . . that I can remember. Perhaps someone will test it in Devuan and make it available for Devuan. Possibly you?

Here's a history lesson regarding this forum to explain to Non_Woke_Linux_User and other newcomers how I became an admin here . . .

Devuan's first forum was Discourse. It was not very well received by Devuan users. So I created and self-hosted Dev1Galaxy as the "The Officially Unofficial Devuan Forum!" alternative. Two or so years later, Discourse was mothballed and Dev1Galaxy became the "Officially Official Devuan Forum!". 

Let this be a reminder that the fantasies we dream up in our head most often have little to do with reality!
