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 don't like how Reddit is operating at all and I made an active decision to use federated instances more.
With that said, I'm not cheering for hackers that steal data and hold it ransom. I can protest/dislike reddit w/o encouraging reckless behavior
While I agree, Reddit really is learning “fuck around and find out” the hard way from all sorts of angles. They must be in perpetual crisis mode. Which sucks for the actual staffers, of course
The staffers are probably more afraid of the eminent mass layoffs. Like, if my CEO praised Elon Musk for how he's handled Twitter, I'd assume my company was about the layoff half of the workforce and somehow lose over 60% of its value very quickly.
So fun and games all round for those guys >_<
Especially if your CEO specifically praised the way Elon downsized Twitter
