Support for other architectures including power9 and arm is being worked on.
We made some changes to our build system that should make it easier, and a
new development server is coming soon. The target would be to have those
architectures supported in the next release.

I'm quite busy at the moment but I'm trying my best to find time for the

So far I fixed a bug on the code that set where to stop hiding after a

However, the fact that negative votes can cause the post to hide for
members of the board and even to become unreadable for non-members (so
basically it got deleted for outsiders) is very critical in my view.
Being unreadable by non-members was a bug that I just fixed. Bad comments are
We do endorse that sub, we even link to it on the sidebar, but we don't
outsource any of the project resources to third parties.
I just added some styling, marking the bad posts in red, and the good ones in
green. This should make it easier to find answers in help request posts.
It is true that the voting doesn't affect the lists, but I don't think you
can call it bypassing since downvoted comments are fully accessible and
functional regardless of the collapse mechanism.
Maybe we should add a section on the guidelines on how to downvote. You
should not downvote somebody just because you disagree with them, downvotes
should be for comments suggesting the use of non-free software, rude
messages, trolling, or very off-topic comments.
So... please don't do that ;)
I just made two adjustments: now it requires three or more downvotes *and*
the average to be negative. Also, it now bypasses admins.

Ok, I'm closing* the comments on this troll hole. Not only is it mostly
off-topic, but it revolves around bashing a person who isn't even part of the

Better than this, we should have a wiki entry about community guidelines (I'd
