But… do we really car?
We kinda do when one person one person can generate 10% of list traffic and drive another 20%, especially if the results of all that traffic is basically nothing positive. (For year after year after year.) If the system we're talking about is not a debian system, often modified in unspecified ways, and on esoteric hardware, the normal answers won't work. Then a lot of well-meaning people throw in their 2c, much of which is either duplicative, outdated, or just wrong (maybe right sometimes but wrong in context, maybe just a mistake). Then other people find this stuff in a search, and have no idea about the context and no way to sort the wheat from the chaff and can't believe how complicated things are (when really, they generally aren't). I have seen this play out in this very thread, but I don't think anyone has the energy to curate this mess and even if they did, how would anyone find it in all the noise?
