Hey guys, great forum and work :-)!

Looks really nice. And it's FOSS... I will definitely recommended Flarum at work too.

What's up with this error, was trying to post here: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/22-tested-working-printers

Justin

fozters Interesting, might be worth reporting that to the Flarum Github Issues page.

Hi, that's just fof/prevent-necrobumping at work, no need to report this feature (it was configured that way, through the extension I mentioned) 😉

I wanted to join this community to clear that up and have been being poking around the Internet looking to see all of these new thriving communities powered by Flarum 😃 (I am a developer for FriendsOfFlarum (FoF) and ReFlar (which brought you Reactions and Nightmode ❤️ ))

@JoshStrobl love what you've done with the place! Currently running Solus on a VM and I absolutely LOVE IT.

Looks like the new site is a hit. Nice work Josh and Team. 👍️

This article I think really sums up what Solus is.

CraigMatze good god that's a brilliant analogy in print; i.e. solus, vinyl. I get it. Unsure many will. Vinyl had idiosyncrasies far beyond tape and certainly beyond compact disc or compressed digital file. I feel that way using this OS...

CraigMatze Thank You Craig for point this perspective out. Really for the first time, on a freshly installed OS I had the feeling to be in touch with my hardware, the feeling I can really in control of it. That's for the speed of boot, the system is so reactive and ready in no time. I really have the feel software and hardware working on a level never before experienced. Excellence the Developers strive and achieve, I believe, with any line of Solus code. Thank You for that IOU <3

ehhh...bells whistles colors distracting. I miss the 'to-the-point' efficiency of your old host. I've been with you for quite a while and I know your big desire was to evolve forums. seems like you tripled your categories but once I find my way around I should shut the heck up.
All that said, this long time fan is happy you are expanding.
I'm quite proud to have grown up with you.

Excellent forum. I have noticed that the Solus community is a bit split up; some use G+, some the old forum, some Facebook... I think that this will help to pull us all together.

Justin

tobcro Well considering this replaced the old forum and G+ is shutting down, it'll definitely consolidate.

Facebook and Twitter are more for news broadcast, the forums/IRC are for support.

Facebook and Twitter are more for news broadcast

I personally treat Facebook and Google+ pages as announce only, engagement there is more rare from me compared to our Twitter and Mastodon. 🤷‍♂️

As always, the Solus team never disappoints, congrats for making this awesome forum I really like it and enjoy using it 🙂

Forum looks very nice!

arkhenius

Awesome work as always folks! I will surely add this to my regularly visited sites 🙂

Also, the dark mode fits Budgie so well, it's like magic! ^^

Hi, that's just fof/prevent-necrobumping at work, no need to report this feature (it was configured that way, through the extension I mentioned) 😉

Yea the issue they were having was addressed in prevent-necrobumping 1.0.2. It was preventing people from posting below (not above) the necrobumping threshold that was set.

(I am a developer for FriendsOfFlarum (FoF) and ReFlar (which brought you Reactions and Nightmode ❤️ ))

All extensions which have made Flarum significantly more usable (or in the case of Night Mode something that was really a must for me to deploy it in the first place, since I didn't want to enforce dark mode for everyone). So thank you for all your contributions ❤️

love what you've done with the place! Currently running Solus on a VM and I absolutely LOVE IT.

Thanks! Obviously feel free to stick around, no need to be a stranger 😃

fozters

Ralkage Thanks for info!

Congratulations to all team Solus for the new forum.

dbarron

I want to raise a possible issue with the current forum configuration.
One thing I miss greatly (esp like the thread for showing solus desktop, but also for screenshots for support) is that the attachment size is apparently fairly low, thus I usually can't see details on the screenshots. Is this a personal failing? 🙂

JoshStrobl

dbarron The size is 2MB, that is way more than enough. My advise would be just opening it up in GIMP and saving it as a JPG.

JoshStrobl Go enjoy your vacation!!! You have other core-team members here.
