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.

Man, the last few months have been wack.
Reddit kills third party apps (and drives away moderators, making some subs ridiculously terrible permanently, eg. /r/IAMA, in case no one's up to speed on that drama), Imgur bans NSFW content and deletes everything not uploaded by registered users, Twitter just goes fucking crazy (although that can really be attributed to one idiot), RARBG dies, Google ~~kills~~ sells off their domains to SquareSpace, Gfycat is just getting rid of everything, Netflix kills password sharing and plays a major part in holding back negotiations with the WGA, Zaslav kills HBO Max and turns it into reality TV central, Red Hat pulls a Canonical, Mastodon is in a potentially precarious situation with Meta...
That's just off the top of my head. There's probably a bunch more I'm forgetting.
2023 is fucking wild. Might as well get ready for the next "We Didn't Start The Fire" cover. There'll probably be enough crazy tech/social media shit for every verse before the end of the year.
Funny enough, a new version of We Didn’t Start the Fire came out last week.
