Consolidated LInux News, Linux Gaming and Linux Support all wrapped up into one
community. We care if you use Arch (but also care if you use Ubuntu, Redhat,
Fedora, Gentoo, Kubuntu, etc) Ask questions, explore Linux software and
distributions. Don’t know where to begin with Linux? Feel free to ask! Rules 1.
We’re aiming for a positive community 2. Yes, you will get banned if you act
toxic towards other commenter’s 3. If you feel like something is “AI Slop”,
down-vote and move on. 4. No politics. 5. Feel free to ask questions or post
projects (including your own), regardless of Linux Distro. 6. You don’t need to
like every project. Constructive criticism is ok. 7. No Go Fund Me’s /
Kickstarters. But requests for more project contributions/donations is ok for
free projects (which have already released the project).
Fair enough, sounds good. I do think that’s a lot of posts for a short amount of time, you’re diluting your commentators.
Did you try reporting the comments or asking to be moderator on any of the existing communities?
The picture is Gnome 1.0
Ah I had never seen it before lol, it looks a lot like Windows 95 to me. I thought it was a Win95 theme for Linux and I was gonna ask where you got it from. I made my own Win 95/98/ME themes so I was curious.
Yeah… Need to get people to join a bit first imho. Also, part of the issue with a lot of the communities is that they’re mostly dead I find. The discussions aren’t really driving them to consistency. Like even c/linux on lemmyworld has 20k subscribers, but only seems to get maybe 2 posts a day (including news).
And there is so much happening in the linux world consistently.
But yeah, original gnome was a bit clunky even compared to Windows 95. But, even xfree86 (which predates Xorg) required manual setup of hardware, didn’t have compositing, etc.
Compositing in Xorg and the Xorg fork changed EVERYTHING, as it even added auto detection of hardware.
Like even c/linux on lemmyworld has 20k subscribers, but only seems to get maybe 2 posts a day (including news).
IMO comments are more important than posts, so fewer posts are better because it means the commentors get funneled in together better, and it doesn’t hog my subscribed feed as much
