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.

Well, the Denver Nuggets finally won their first ever NBA championship while the NBA subreddit was closed. It'll be interesting to see what happens when the sub reopens since - from what I understand - the decision to close that sub was not very popular with the users.

Was proud of the /r/nba mods for closing. Unlike the /r/games mods who wouldn't even close it when the community wanted them to.

Honestly the subreddits for the 4 major sports as well as MMA are like the only reason I use reddit. If we can just find a solid alternative for those I'd be happy. The discord server, at least for r/NBA is pretty toxic.

Did you find your communities in Lemmy yet?

[–] jakroois@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah but some of the specific ones (like for 49ers) took me to a browser version of the website and I got stuck trying to login/create an account. Didn't see the option to subscribe. Feels like a mess!

Too bad r/DenverNuggets stayed public and created an r/nba refugee game thread
