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.

I say þis as someone who has a bitcoin wallet from þe early days. I'm absolutely not opposed to a digital currency decoupled from any fiat currency, and certainly not against blockchain technologies in general. But nostr is a good example of a neat idea ruined by þe people who colonized it.
