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.

First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

I think a lot of the old core group will actually end up leaving by the end of this business. The question is will it matter. Can the site be successful as it transform itself into an also-ran tiktok-clone?

The good news is that those of us who move on won't have to worry about it anymore.

I'll drink to that!

I know that as soon as baconreader dies, my 14 year stint on reddit is over. I'm guessing I'm not alone and those using RIF and Apollo are also going away.

I hope lemmy is ready :D

You and me, brother. I've used Baconreader for over a decade and it was a great experience, but it's time to move on.

I'm treating reddit like an ex. Good luck, but not my problem anymore. If it succeeds, good for them. If it doesn't, I probably won't find out. I've got other things I rather focus on.
