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.

If you looking for a degnerate alternative to WSB, consider signing up to wallstreetbets.
I dont think reddit survive this and I sure as sheet dont think they'll allow subs like wsb to persist.
The end coming through with a bang.
How do I sign up to this? I can't seem to search for it from my instance. (Probably a bad search str)
I'm not sure. Try searching for !wsb_main@wallstreets.bet.
I'm still learning the whole federation thing.
Lol, thanks! Yeah same!
They linked an Instance. There is !wallstreetbets@lemmy.ml and !wallstreetbets@lemmy.world however
I don't get it; why would they not allow WSB, potentially one of their biggest moneymakers, to persist?
Because WSB is a den of debauchery and trouble making. Its had direct and indirect impacts on markets. It also drinks piss and monitors where dogs shit as a market indicator. Its not something a publically traded company can really be associated with.
It has real market-affecting power, so that's power to them, publicly traded or not. They probably get deals with/money from high-frequency traders using the data. I don't believe they would axe it. /r/wallstreetbets is still going strong.
