Hi LinAdmin, As one of the people who wrote the FAQ for the debian-user mailing list, not only have I heard of it, I specifically referenced it. If you are trying to get some random posting removed from a Debian mailing list, this is difficult becasue it may be archived anywhere in the world. Complaining too much about it risks the Streisand effect. See, for example, the latest https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2022/08/msg00004.html My reply to you yesterday was to ask you to be considerate, think of others on the mailing list and to specifically consider how your words may come across. Working constructively with people, adding to what they are doing, offering help is more useful than offering criticism in general. This is a community: you are working with / being read by people you may never meet and it helps to work out who you are dealing with and what ability they may have to help you. In an earlier message in the thread: <https://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2022/07/msg00039.html> you suggested that you didn't care about Debian because Ubuntu worked well. We do care about what you've said, some of the people following the list are people who might be able to help evaluate what we can do to improve Debian but the way that you are making your point is not the most helpful to what you are trying to say. There may be better ways to explain as you wish to without putting down other people's work. The Code of Conduct (https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct) and Debian Community Team notes (https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct_interpretation) refer. I'd suggest particularly that section 2 - Assume good faith is very relevant in this situation. > On 18.08.22 18:58, Andrew M.A. Cater wrote: > > On Thu, Aug 18, 2022 at 05:21:19PM +0200, LinAdmin wrote: > >> I do know that you do not like my comment that 32bit on Pi4 > >> is much more efficient than 64 Bit ... > >> Linadmin > >> > >> > > Good afternoon, LinAdmin > > > > It does appear to me that this comment is not directly relevant to this > > message and might not be helpful.
