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.

16 is definitely extreme, but having gone to war with YouTube's junk to small kids and finding out there's no preventing them falling down some junk rabbit hole, I'm pretty cool with it up to about 12.
My thoughts exactly. All online spaces unless they offer a manually curated, child friendly experience and live moderation.
