The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).

If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.

I know people doesn't like Redmi/Xiaomi, but man what a punch for the money, and "malware" have been inexistant up until very lately (deep malware are everywhere). I bought a (the FX) file explorer for like 5€, there is a totally ok free version too and that's the only thing I needed to have a nice experience (no pub, I know everything is probably tracked like on all phones).

Got the redmi note (pro?) 2 shipped from alibaba.com a long time ago for < 100€, then the 5, 7 etc.

Greatest value for sure, they all still work except the 5 that I went swimming with, I cracked the screen on the 7, ...

The older ones also had swappable batteries (3000 mAh too!) and SD card slot when the concurrences had like 32GB for OS + everything else.

I'm not a fanboi but my 4 year old phone for 250€ has 6GB RAM & 128 GB storage...

Well, their newer phones do have a lot of shady things (even the 4x video player demands weird permissions), new mis, especially 11 series are known for being unreliable. I particularly hate the bootloader unlock experience, waiting time, issues with the app (on pc and phone), no linux and USB3 support (I had to use a vm in an old laptop). BTW, I'm angry as today I didn't read the error messages properly and reset it. I wasted a day and now I have to wait another week (or more) to unlock it.
