Do you go on other subforums?


I think I use Slackware forum 99% of the time and rarely go on the other sections

Sometimes, yes. I think also a lot of installation issues get dealt with in here when they could be moved to the other one.

There are plenty of interesting posts and Slackware users that post in other forums. I do go to other forums and subforums.

Just Slackware and BSD, for me. All else is distraction, which happens sometimes, usually with regret, haha.

I certainly go on other sub-forums.

I have gotten lots of answers here and want to return the favor.

Just here.

While I do know some stuff about programming (I've been doing it a while), I also instruct people on what to do/not do as part of the Day Job (I'm a software architect). I do code inspections and all that crap during the day.

Helping people to get their Slackware systems up and running so they can enjoy the same software environment that I've enjoyed using since 1998 or so doesn't feel like work to me.

I don't direct;y venture into other forums, but I do usually have LQ Spy running in a tab and try to answer things that I can, sometimes without noticing what forum they are in.

Mostly here and the LQ BSD forum. I lurk in other BSD forums too.

I do a quick browse round the other forums, vainly looking for questions I know the answer to, then open LQ Spy.
