A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Twitter has taught me that nowadays people are too adaptable, 90% of people will stick with Reddit no matter what they do.
The blackout was useless because most subreddits didn't even provide an alternative on Lemmy or elsewhere.
The ones that did picked... Discord.
Because a chatroom with the exact same issues they were blacking out Reddit over embracing was going to be a viable alternative to a community forum.
