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.

Reddit just auto removed my comment with a link to Lemmy.ml (programming.dev)

I was commenting on a Japanese sub to guide them to Lemmy and my comment becomes "[ Removed by Reddit ]" after a few seconds. Was this always the case?

I agree, that web page is awful and even as a generally tech-savvy person it steered me away from Lemmy. Only joined kbin after reddit banned it and I had a clear "join this thing, reddit doesn’t like it" sign.

While the ideal may be spreading users out across instances and federating, I think the fact is that reddit refugees probably just want to be directed to something popular they can join and get content from without hassle.
