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.

I'm happy people are sharing stuff to Lemmy, it's been a little quiet.

I definitely value the Forbes article over the MSN but we might not be talking about it if we hadn't seen this post. let's not be too critical when people are participating positively.

Maybe my first comment was a little crass, but I think the criticism is more than valid. Really, it's less of a criticism of the user and more of MSN republishing everything, as well as notice for people who haven't yet spotted that trick they're playing. But really, we should be encouraging users to share source articles or archive versions of the source article (as well as removing referral and AMP tags). I don't think that is likely to make people share less, rather help them to learn how to share higher quality content, which in turn should be more popular.
