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.

Seems reddit admins have taken a “get in line or get lost” approach to their volunteer mods. Let’s see how that works out for them.

Let’s see how that works out for them.

Judging by the comments you get if you suggest switching away from Reddit, Reddit will do very well. I won’t be there, but they’ll be successful even if the site goes more to shit.

It is shocking how emotionally attached some people seem to be to Reddit and how they lash out when you suggest alternatives.

I wonder if it's an age thing, people pushing 40 like me have seen plenty of sites come and go an have transitioned with them. If you're under say 25, you may have been using Reddit your whole life on the internet.

Hey I'm barely 20, didn't use 3rd party slots, and I still migrated here.

Edit:3rd party apps*
