Slow/Bad connection?

#1 Post by MikeR »

F.Y.I.
Connecting to https://forum.mxlinux.org/ varies between time-out and very slow.

It's not just you. It's been down more than up all morning. Probably the aftermath of the hurricane is the reason.
HP 15; ryzen 3 5300U APU; 500 Gb SSD; 8GB ram
HP 17; ryzen 3 3200; 500 GB SSD; 12 GB ram
Idea Center 3; 12 gen i5; 256 GB ssd;

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

I'm wondering about the possible effect of Deo's glowing review, one of the first times he's reviewed any Linux distro in quite a while, as he says.
