  • Hi Dohpaz42! Welcome and thank you for doing a bit of a pulse check and getting some input from the community.

    I’m one of the many lurkers that typically just browses and rarely comments or posts but I wanted to post a little feedback on your proposed updated rules:

    I would like to ask that you consider including something about the comics themselves being cropped/modified before posting.

    I know there will be times where a person mistakenly uploads a modified one randomly found on the net, but recently there have been a ton of posts (comments as well) where the one user in particular, decided that cropping the images are justified and will link to places like Reddit or the main website for their comic (e.g. xkcd.com) without the direct link/attribution. Followed by taunting others who point it out in other threads. It is causing unnecessary drama in the community obviously.

    Thank you



  • For an exact 1:1 replacement? Yeah, I do agree about that. If anyone looking for options doesn’t mind making some compromises it opens the doors quite a bit.

    I shared in another reply a link to some alternatives. Guilded seems to be the closest to a 1:1 replacement for now.

    My personal concern is having to repeat this again if the next proprietary platform becomes too big. My friend group has gone through google hangouts (it was a different time lol), the curse client, which became a Twitch product eventually and then Discord.

    I’m at the point where I’m considering going back to web forums and things like teamspeak/ventrillo.



  • Just quoting this from the linked post:

    “I’m a KeePassXC maintainer. The Copilot PRs are a test drive to speed up the development process. For now, it’s just a playground and most of the PRs are simple fixes for existing issues with very limited reach. None of the PRs are merged without being reviewed, tested, and, if necessary, amended by a human developer. This is how it is now and how it will continue to be should we choose to go on with this. We prefer to be transparent about the use of AI, so we chose to go the PR route. We could have also done it locally and nobody would ever know. That’s probably how most projects work these days. We might publish a blog article soon with some more details.”

    First I’ve seen this, so I appreciate the post OP. It’s four months old too, so I have no idea what and if anything has changed since the quoted post
