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.

FYI, as great as Mastodon and the fediverse are, there are issues that prevent their mainstream adoption:

The biggest issue is normies are stupid. That’s basically the gist.
Yeah but normies are what make platforms thrive. I fear Lemmy may just become an anti-Reddit circlejerk but then die out due to lack of content.
I'm hoping it at least sticks around as a niche nerdy corner of the internet now, I'm kinda over the Reddit thing already and am now just using lemmy for the same stuff I used to use Reddit for.
Community closer to the first wave of reddit users (when I joined) seemed very friendly but I think with the massive infux of redditors it's gone back to Reddit culture
