@Ravexina Did you delete my comment on this post?

Or I commented somewhere else?

@Kulfy yes

There should be an edit button for comments too, so I can fix typo in "reputation" in Ravexina's comment :)

@Kulfy Yeah, I left a comment for you... Saw you hit the site couple of times in different times and considered that you've seen my comment. so I removed them.

Oh. I see.

Ravexina

> It's an auto-generated message. And thanks for pointing it out. I edited the message. Once you've read my comment flag it as not needed. Thanks :)

That's my comment... ;)

I fixed the typo too. thanks again :)

@Ravexina So that was an auto-generated comment. Nice.

@Ravexina YW.

Ravexina

Not for comments of course but I copy pasted it and didn't pay attention to the details.

I see. No problem.

@user3140225 Thanks, I've voted to reopen it. It needs two more reopen votes.

This and that comment are no longer needed.

@Natty tp Most of the actual instructions are behind the link. The only instructions in the answer are for finding out if the linked page is relevant.

Quite surprising to see this absolutely open-ended forum-y/reddit-y question getting so many +1's! o.O

NAA

Looks like an useful answer, but it seems the answerer is suggesting their own extension. Probably it would good to ask them to put a disclosure in that case. I didn't do it myself as I have posted the accepted answer, the answerer may feel like an attack.

(^^ or rather a useful workaround, the question asks for a keyboard shortcut)

@pomsky (related) Thanks for leaving this response @EliahKagan, but I doubt whether it's possible for the commenter to change their stance even a bit. :D

I had a run in with this user before regarding the same issue, it's quite usual to see them posting same kind of highly opinionated, biased and ill-documented comments here and there. I also left a comment (most probably in vain) with an explicit example of unwise theming.

(unrelated) Are we getting rid of the location tag?

@Kulfy ^^ I noticed you removed the [location] tag from this question.

@pomsky Also, is this question really preservation-worthy?

The question looks blatantly unfit for the site. It has an answer with a positive score, but it looks more like an elaborated "how to turn your distro into an (subjective) eye candy"-type blog post (kinda justifiable due to the non-specific nature of the question itself). I don't think the answer would fit any other on-topic (existing or a new) questions here either. (cc @EliahKagan)

(unrelated) deletable, looks like a generic suggestion
