Where do I sign for the Tier 2 sub (or in my case extension of an existing subscription)? :shiftyninja:

Congratulations on passing the 10 million posts mark. It took longer than many expected, Neobond himself inluded I'm sure. Now on to the next milestones.

1) Tell us why you joined Neowin:

It seemed like a great site to me where I could get news to various things (Games, Technology etc.) and also discuss them, plus the community seemed nice so I signed up^^

2) And what kept you here as an active user of the site:

Pretty much the same things I mentioned above and the sheer amount of things I get to read every day :p

Oh and yeah, congratz everyone for 10 million posts :rofl:

1) Tell us why you joined Neowin:

I believe it was for Longhorn info, following leaks, etc.

2) And what kept you here as an active user of the site:

Probably the community, and the wide variety of things to read and participate in.

1 million posts per year. Not bad at all. What was the busiest year? Which has been the busiest month consistently looking back 10 years?

To help Odom with his Indexing problems on his WHS (see thread).

This one is easy. To share technical knowledge with the community. I?ve learnt plenty, and posted plenty of random stuff I happen to know. Not always technical, but mostly. Other reason is Gamers Hangout. It?s my favourite place.

Up until '07/08 we managed over a million a year, since then it's been more like between 14 or 15 months to reach the next million. But still 10M inside a decade, not bad!

Good job guys!

I joined neowin because one day I needed computer help and neowin was on too of the google result. So I clicked on the link, got great help and decided to stay on the website after going through it for 5 minutes and realize this could be my "home" on the Internet.

Great place, great news, great people!

1. Why did I join? Originally it was because I was a complete n00b when it came to computers. Over the years I've gone to school and visit this site daily and have educated myself to the point where servicing and troubleshooting computers is now my livelihood.

2. Why did I stay? The community is awesome. Very helpful when help is needed. Also love a lot of the articles posted on the main site. (Also love Rappy's threads in the Subscriber section :devil: )

In the last 10 years, only 2 or 3 days haven't I visit Neowin... :p

My girlfriend who isn't tech savy, now knows what Neowin is, from so much reloading the neowin site... ;)

Hell, even when on holidays, on country's where I could only have a connection of 3KB/s I visited Neowin, and had people screaming "get out of the only computer on the hotel with Internet"...

This is an amazing community and I really really hope we can have topics like this for 20, 30 .... 100 millions posts :D

    • I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.
    • If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
    • I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it
    • Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
