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.

Yeah when the blackout started I disabled my Reddit app and haven't been back there once since. We need more people doing this.
I went back to post on the "We're back from the Blackout" posts to go let them know about the new communities that were started up here.
I did that for a few that I'm interested in and got downvoted immediately. There's definitely some bot like activity trying to flood content/organic growth on the communities polling/figuring out what's next, so that users would flock back. They are also pushing back on alternatives when a good ol person would be just curious/happy/relieved that there's some semblance of carry-over away from Reddit.
