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.

Hand me the roll of foil next. The Arab Spring, Hong Kong protests, those sorts of things were where Twitter truly shined. A lot of powerful people want to take the voice away from the masses.
And crafting a little addition to my own hat: I firmly believe Reddit is doing the same now. The goal is to silence everyone but the voices they want to hear from. It's working but with federated social media, the tide may turn. 🤞
