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.

For the semi-lurker like me there's nothing holding me back to Reddit. Some current news, sprinkle of meme, some draft comments that I will never submit and some meaningful discussion from community, fediverse has all those.

I'm going to keep Reddit for specific interests like specific sports teams or specific game franchises. I haven't really seen a replacement for decent engagement for those. But other than that I've already trimmed down my subs to almost nothing. There's a lot less activity on those, so my Reddit time will be about like my Facebook time, which is a couple minutes a day to see any updates before closing.

I think it's going to be a nice change of pace to not have those big subs taking up so much of my time doomscrolling.
