Enough with the Mark Zuckerberg Love
(jogblog.substack.com)
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.

There's a lot to legitimately criticize Zuckerberg about, but not 'being cool' for learning jujitsu isn't one of them.
This article is so crass and petty that it completely undercuts the point of the immense social damage his forays into social media have caused. It comes off as exactly the kind of toxic bullshit that's perpetuated on his platforms. We don't need it.
The solution isn't picking a new side and being childish, it's being honest and thoughtful as we exercise our autonomy far away from tech bros with too much money and let them be as irrelevant as they ought to.
