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.

With kbin and lemmy, there’s a spark of the good ol’ days, but the players are all scattered across so many disconnected grids. I’m sure there are some great communities popping up, but they may be fleeting, or instances might crash and disappear. Mastodon is good, and growing every day and also has some of that Ye Olde Twitter Feels, but — BUT! — I don’t have a lot of fun on it.

Has anybody found any fun communities to share?

You can always try searching on Trending Communities or New Communities, that's where I've found many new interesting communities to follow and I have both of them on my RSS feed to ensure I don't miss any news. In related topics, the main Wordpress.com site is finally enabling ActivityPub so expect many blogs to start interacting with the Fediverse and, who knows, directly cross-posting to Lemmy.

@csolisr sorry for the offtopic. I'm amazed how much of Lemmy is still far-left leaning even after the Reddit migration! Communities on Lemmygrad are still reaching the top of the list (and no, it's not just the Palestine community). OTOH fewer communities on other servers make it into the list, than those on .world

I'm feeling the opposite, with federation it's trying too hard to be like social media.

I prefer to have disconnected communities like the forums of the old times.
