I’ll go ahead and lock this thread.
And the last post about it was 10 years ago, no information anywhere in sight about the actual problem, and DenverCoder9 just left the topic with a simple “oh I figured it out” WHAT DID YOU SEE?!
And hours before me, too!
Gonna be honest, I didn’t even check the comments, I was browsing in the car before work.
reeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
FUCK the ARCH LINUX FORUM MAINTAINERS, IN PARTICULAR, for this.

Well, you could’ve just done a Google search.
That description is just pure nostalgia, I miss old message boards.
Great news! You can have that experience today on Google’s or Microsoft’s community & product forums. It’s the default response!
I still encounter the same thing in some open-source discord servers.
They’re nostalgic to me too but I definitely don’t miss them
They kind of were what the fediverse wants to be without the bonus featrues. There were thousands upon thousands of small decentralized communities with tightly knit communities. If a board simply sucked, you could go to another one. Of course they did not federate, you had to create different accounts for each of them and information was only passed on by users being in multiple ones. However, they had traction. Unlike with lemmy today, there were hundreds of active communities for every topic I ever wanted.
A webring is as close as you could get to federating. No SSO, but you could use different sign-ins just like going from lemmy to kbin or so.
Looking at you, Microsoft Windows support team. At least some random blog post from 10 years ago probably has the answer.
Unless the only comment is “Solved it, nevermind.”, then you know you’re screwed.
XKCD for everything.
But have you tried restarting your computer and reinstalling all drivers?
bruh give us an exact list of every program you have installed and hardware in your pc and log file from your last 20 used programs before we’ll even read your question. no we don’t know how any of that is relevant, but we can pretend to be smarter than you by asking for it

Understandable, have a nice day.
I too could have 40k posts when I made those kinds of comments

This
Reincarnated into an Amazon review by email.
No joke, that shit is why reddit caught on. 2000s flat-forum culture was a complete joke. Having replies show up beneath the relevant comment, in a nice collapsible tree, was a godsend. Having pointless bullshit sorted below interesting bullshit meant you didn’t need to scroll through a thousand posts just to be disappointed.
