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.

Most users are blindly accepting any and all requests by apps.

Yeah but that's really their problem. I mean, the OS literally asks them to allow it. What more can you do?

At least Android also proactively asks them whether to disable notifications for an app if they always swipe them away, or if they haven't used the app in a long time.
