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.

MODERATORS
Different kinds of social media have different focuses. Reddit and forum style have a bit less focus on the person and more focus on the content than Twitter because of how people interact with the platform itself. Twitter is very person centric, encouraging you to follow people to cut through the noise. Having communities which surface voted content puts more emphasis on the community than the individual and draw out the timeframe of algorithm engagement.
