Linux Mint 20 Text Disappears
2/8/26 | RetiredTexasVet

Posted on 02/08/2026 1:38:18 PM PST by RetiredTexasVet

Used my Linux Mint 20 Pc to post some text the other day and it disappeared. That supports the theory that it was not just a Windows 11 problem. Rather than wasting any more time with disappearing text, I'm going to retire from Free Republic. RIP.

Well, just for the record, I'm quite delighted with my Linux Mint here, and will be installing it on yet another computer possibly tomorrow.

Regarding bailing on FR ... for me FR is the only place where I believe I can get fairly close to the truth of things.

You seem to have happily escaped without becoming a Screaming radical and with your sense of humor! Good deal!

My grandmother was praying for me, and God’s hand was on me. He brought His people alongside me, and ten years later I was finally ready to enter His family. Now, I’ve become one of those people He can use.

I use YouTube to help solve technical/mechanical/automotive/shop and a whole host of other challenges.

Why to freepers think THIS is the place to go?

These threads are always funny.
