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.

Is Goodreads bad? I use it a lot, but would it be better/more ethical to change like with reddit?
My son is an author and in the community apparently goodreads is known as the place where hopes and dreams die
Could you elaborate? I have used Goodreads for a while and have discovered books there that I would never have without the site...
The moderation was garbage so the reviews can get pretty nasty depending on the genre. Trolls often go to the site to review instead of amazon because they can get away with so much
