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.

Hey everyone. If you want to post links or discuss the Reddit blackout, please localize it to this thread in order to keep things tidy!

Honestly? I fucking love it.

Its SO fast (I have my own instance), and instead of subscribing to subreddits and one server, now I subscribe to communities and multiple instances.

The people are responsive.

Only problem is missing niche communities, and discoverability, but that will improve with time hopefully with something like multi-reddits.

okay I've learned a bit because I'm pretty sure I understand that now. Like I said it's gonna take a few weeks but I'll get there. I'm pretty determined to leave reddit and have been for a long time just needed a push. I'm already making my way around my new "frontpage" alright. I do like how fast everything is and how comments and upvotes seem to be live.

Yeah on a technical level, all the data is "live" and pushed while you're using the site so it feels instantaneous.

Very clever and forward thinking. Not sure how well it'll scale but that's part of the fun!
