Which project are you talking about ?
As far as I know, almost every Dog related topic is open for any kind of feedback, discussing, asking questions, etc...

Hello,
My main point in making that decision was that most of the Dog users are also Puppy users. Also the fact that much work has been done to include apt in a standard puppy format. So much of the information is cross-compatible...
It may seem a contradiction that my group expressly forbids other distros. But opening that door would overwhelm my group. The number of users of the Dogs would not...
Plus I flat-out like Debian dog..
It's a good way for puppy users to experience some of the advantages ( and disadvantages) of the larger distros while still in a comfortable Puppy format..
I started this thread about my group...
Not as a place to argue the complexities of this forum...

Hello,
"you agree that facebook is not the place where to post for troubleshooting"
I disagree entirely.
Some of Puppy's finest developers are members of my group...
Many of them are members of this forum...
More often than not links to this form are the answer...
Do not forget that my group is an extension of this forum...
I was elevated to moderator of the Puppy Linux Users Group on this forum, but could never find an actual group or page to moderate.
So I created one on Facebook.
Last I checked it was changed to moderator of the Puppy Linux Documentation Project.
That's an exercise in futility....

Posting about the Dogs on the Puppy forum is fine, just not in "Puppy Projects", Post under "Puppy Derivatives" instead !!! Or elsewhere (Misc/Other ... whatever). "Puppy Derivatives" is more appropriate for Fat Dog, Barry's EasyOS ...etc. alternatives, whilst leaving those using actual Puppies with less 'spam' (confusion) to wade through in the Puppy Projects section. |
I'm sorry to disagree rufwoof, but DebianDog is not and never has been a derivative of Puppy - it is a derivative of Debian. It was simply, made to look a bit like a Pup and in similar size - in that latter sense it is loosely a project based on Puppy look and feel hence I'm sure that's why Toni first started writing about it in that Puppy Projects section. BarryK's EasyOS definitely has some lineage with Puppy itself from what I see, so Puppy Derivative seems quite logical for that one.
EDIT: I do agree that too much Dog stuff overtakes Puppy Projects thread, so a new area for threads such as Puppy Lookalikes would be nice.
Anyway, sorry puppyluvr, this is definitely offtopic - moving on.

Facebook is a far better platform for discussing puppylinux when on ones phone. A forum like this is a far better platform when on a PC.

Hello,
We average a couple of requests a day.
But we only allow the ones that seem genuinely interested in Puppy Linux.
Ironically, we occasionally get people who are looking for a group about actual puppies.
This generally leads to them being asked whether or not it was made with WOOF!
Or how much RAM that puppy needs to run!
