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.

Why wouldn't they? Their goal is to create a fair phone. Not a niche phone for a few geeks.

Because that few geeks is their actual market right now.

Jack isn't really a niche thing. It's as mainstream as it gets.
