Differences between this Forum and Puppy Linux Help?

#1 Post by rincon155 »

So far I have been using this Forum with very good results. On practical grounds, what are the relevant differences for a simple (happy) Puppy user, between this Forum and the Alternate Puppy Linux Community Forum: "Puppy Linux Help"?
Thank you

I don't know anything about the other forum except that it was started in response to this one going dark for about a week not long ago. This forum has been around for over 5 years. It includes a number of knowledgeable people who are friendly and willing to help beginners to Linux (not to disparage the other forum, I just don't know anything about it.) Having been around so much longer than the other forum, this one has accumulated a much larger amount of searchable information about using Puppy Linux.

Puppy Linux Help is forming a complimentary rather than competitive voice. How that emerges is up to the users.
Big bass (Joe) has just posted about his excellent tgz distro and I instigated a rant on secure cheese. We have sections for
Beginners
Wary, Racy, Quirky
Lucid Puppy
Slacko
Puplets
Classic – Old puppies never die :)
dPup
Saluki – friendly, innovative, artistic, functional, modern
Developers
Woof2 – Puppy Build System
Games
Off-Topic
PuppyLinux Speaker's Corner – Ranting

I use both forums at the moment
Puppy Raspup 8.2Final 8)
Puppy Links Page http://www.smokey01.com/bruceb/puppy.html :D
