That is one way, bit it is really 2000ish … today there have to be an introduction video of max 5min to show the most important information. Most newbies are spoiled by such videos and well it is going to be a habit. Newbies are just lazy readers and i was one of them :wink:

Where can I get Google Drive Linux app!

Google isn’t going to release it yet /s :smirk:

Probably not official version.

There are packages in the repo (and in the AUR) for dealing with Google Drive. Most people know this, though.

the guys at stackoverflow have a nice feature that automatically suggests existing questions/thread based on the content when a user writes a new thread. it actually pointed me to a solution that i had not found before at least once. maybe this would be a solution for the “newbies don’t search” problem?

no idea though whether this is possible with disourse…

Not only that, there’s a “here are some articles similar to what you’re typing right now, pudding head” pane to the right of the text entry box ^___^

ok, so this already exists… sorry…

Fyi, this is only the case in Desktop view. Not mobile view.

we don’t have that issue in manjaro, any web app takes 5min to build for desktop using jak backend, check it out.

2 posts were split to a new topic: Google drive on JAK

Not really a problem, but if you’re creating a FAQ section, How to post screenshots should be part of it…

:innocent:

The bot will do the FAQ since no one ever reads it.

That may be true for a lot of people … but it doesnt mean that we should have any information in the bot that isnt posted otherwise. (wiki, etc) Aside from really basic things that shouldnt otherwise need posting I suppose.

:: removing PACKAGE-ABC breaks dependency ‘DEPENDENCY-123’ required by PACKAGE-XYZ

People are confused and don’t understand the error message every time.

edit: bonus point for not even seeing PACKAGE-XYZ is also often an AUR package

And about AUR packages, people often report breakage in the Update announcements threads, or complain they needed to rebuild their AUR package because of the update, when this is expected sometimes and should be added as info maybe in every relevant FAQ entries or official threads.
