Linux Lite Donations

[Jerry]

Thanks technomancer

[technomancer]

The facebook link doesn't work for me, however the main LinuxLite webpage, "donate" tab works just fine.
I don't use facebook or have an account, so much appreciated I can donate without it.
Great work everyone is doing on this OS ! I can't wait to see what the future holds.

Ok. I had no idea what was going on. It didn't seem to be in keeping with this site.

[Jerry]

I have no idea how that happened, but it's fixed now. Thank you.

[Jerry]

Oh in the first post, you should have said 'in the first post of this thread' lol!

Yes, but where is the link situated? You say 'your post' but I need to see where that is.

[paul1149]

Here is the link I get in your post. It took me to a facebook page that said there was a problem with the link and asked if I wanted to continue to it. I did, and ended up at the desired location. I just checked the thread out in PaleMoon and got the same link.

Jerry, is it intentional that the donate link goes through facebook?

Can you please point out where that is?

Hello!

Thank you, Jerry, for all you and the team have done to make Linux Lite a smashing success - not just for entry-level users, but for those at every level of Linux experience.

I'm always throwing in my two cents' worth around here, so in celebration of my 1000th public post, I have decided to donate two cents for each and every one of them.

It took a year-and-a half to get there, and I'd like to think that what I've had to say here (for the most part) has been helpful to others...

Rob,

It is I that has to give thanks. There are so many people like you in this community that give their time to help others, members and developers. This is exactly why I participate in free software - because it encourages people to share knowledge freely, it tells people that sharing is good and that you when help someone else, you help make this a better world. I hope to stay in your company for many years to come. I got your PM as well, so thank you.

Congratulations on your 1000 posts!!!

Yes UEFI! Yes I've read your rant on UEFI and fully respect your opinions towards it. MS doesn't seem to realize that the Linux community (& BSD communites also) is not giving up without a fight. While UEFI is quick, it doesn't give the user any more freedom that we currently enjoy with BIOS and MBR technologies. We already have carriers in the United States that lock the bootloader on android phones, making it extremely hard to install CyanogenMod or other custom android OS's (ROM's in the android world).

It just sucks. All of us want this legal capitalism to end.

  Nice message, let the donations begin!
