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.

Let me spin that for you so you see the problem.

Mastodon, the social network backed by terrorists. By signing up, you put your name on a FBI watchlist as well.

edit: I didn't make it clear that this would be the spin that would be possible to use against mastodon. It's not true, but it doesn't have to be to cause harm.

........ can a brother get a source on this??

[–] elfpie@beehaw.org 3 points 1 day ago

It wasn't true. I wasn't even trying to deceive anyone, but the problem is that people will mostly believe without asking for sources if they don't care. I put an edit above now.
