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.

Seriously, what's up with big sites literally dying as we speak? (lemmy.ml)

First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

Instance hosts will be understandably wary of investing $$$ in a huge influx that may or may not stick around, too. A more gradual influx is good since it lets people scale up slowly, work out donation streams, and such.

I'm fine even with just the current size of this place, though. Even just beehaw alone. It feels cozy. :)

A lot of those 430 million monthly users on reddit aren't posting or commenting anything I care to see. Most aren't posting or comment at all, just voting. And r/all has never not been a trashfire, so, it can keep being a trashfire somewhere over there where I'm not, at least.
