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.

Here's the current usershare breakdown by instance, if anyone's curious:

A pie chart depicting the top instances by usershare. The lemmy.world instance is in the top spot with 1/3 of the total usershare. The majority of the remaining pie is shared between the next 17 largest instances. The remaining 1/5 of the pie contains all other Lemmy instances.

Lemmy.world is getting a very big chunk, but other than that it actually seems fairly distributed.

I guess there has to be a lowest common denominator instance. Not at all a bad thing, it leaves the dedicated communities out of their inevitable implosion range which still having access.
