Hello Forum,
I have have recently discovered Bodhi, looking to revive an old machine, so a light Linux was the idea. And after a few weeks now, I plan to stay for longer.
So far I have been very happy with Bodhi, although my personal enlightenment comes from somewhere else. š There are a few bugs which I hope to help resolve by posting about them in this forum.
But thanks to the developers. Itās a very nice distro!

Hey GBano
Glad Bodhi is working out for you and glad to have you with us. The team rely on feedback and reporting to keep the distro up to the standards we have come to expect, so thatās great.

Glad to have you onboard gbano Often new users report things as Bugs that are not bugs at all. Like how the menu acts close to the right side of the screen. It takes some adjustment to get used to moksha or enlightenment. Other times users report issues we have known about for a long time and for whatever reason not fixed. It may be a feature not a bug, it may be of little importance to us (a minor annoyance), it may be difficult to fix, we may have more urgent things to do, and so on. But we do encourage users to report any issues or problems. It may be the case you report a problem unknown to us and problems are probably not going to get fixed unless we know about them. Anyway glad you like Bodhi and thanks for the praise

Hi all,
Thanks for the welcome.
I might have discovered a bit of a bug(ger): You canāt access this forum from e.g. a Tails distro or any other distribution using a TOR exit node! Whilst I understand measures of protection against spam and abuse are needed, hardly any forum discriminates against TOR. This however belongs to my (and othersā) basic internet security.
Not much I can do about it but I like to pass this to the kind attention of the forum admins.

The forums are hosted by proboards, so those kind of settings are managed by them. Thanks for the heads up though.

Iāve dug a bit deeper on this and proboards blocked Tor a while ago and there are no plans to un block it. Apparently itās to do with security and alleged ānegative behaviourā coming from people using Tor.

Thanks for digging.
This is sad however. Spoils my security.
