Anyone else notice that SW has a new layout which hides most of the topics posted in the community? Now they just show their own articles and posts that have been "featured". The timeline/feed of everyone's posts is either gone or must be searched for in depth. But I suppose it makes them look like there aren't a bunch of noob questions/shitposts/etc.
It's been like that for some time for me.

I guess I'm tardy to the party.... but it's starting to look more like buzzfeed or something, with carefully curated content to attract new IT "pros". And vendors with deep pockets.

I wonder if I'm still on their "beta tester" program, it would explain why I stopped looking at all before so many other people around here at least.

Yeah I had to dig into the sub topics to find recent/current postings.

I just have a query setup to search for blank spaces. This way I get notifications for literally everything except for constant walls of text without spaces.
Boss move, right?!

Unpacked my new monitors today. Dell U2518D. I guess I might have had worser screens in the past.
But there's also another factor: I'm using a Surface Pro 2017 and its ultra high quality display makes nearly every other screen look like ... well, you think you will need glasses soon when you look at others.

Catching up on all my ML "Hey, I'll open another tab for that and read that thread later" posts.

Some days, no browser on earth could handle that, ha ha.

I'm ridiculously far behind today, too. Been a VERY busy day.

Ah, is that why traffic died down so much?

Considering a FreePBX 14 server to help dive into Linux server administration. Namely the FreePBX 14 hashtag and anything JB wrote in regards to Freepbx.

That would be a bad choice.
Because once the install is done, you should rarely be on the CLI with something like FreePBX.
Granted I still use the CLI to update, but I never posted instructions on that because it is an advanced or non standard funciton compared to everything else in FreePBX.

Any suggestions then? Blog?

Wiki.js is dead simple (skip the Git connection). Then put NginX on the same bvox in front of it to give you some things to tinker with.

Reading some old random posts on Ubuntu Forums.
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2298150the computer club teacher walked over and said, "are you using linux?" I was like, "Yes." Then he said, "Linux isn't allowed at school." I asked why and he was like, "Linux can be used for hacking, and you can get into our servers from the terminal."

How are you finding Zoho?
We are looking at replacing our helpdesk later this year.I too used SpiceWorks before our current one that is craptastic to say the least. I'm looking at service desk plus at the moment.

@nadnerb So far so good. Having a few teething issues with incoming mail coming into a spam folder but apart from that good.
(I will mention if you import the tickets from another like spiceworks, make sure you include any comments already on the ticket. I forgot lol
had to manually add them to 10-15 tickets)
