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.

I already had to use the cached version of a Reddit thread today to solve a technical issue I had with the rust compiler. There is so much valuable content there that is well indexed by search engines, let's hope they don't lock down the site even further to prevent AI's from training on their data.

Although, in that case, Lemmy can take over as the searchable internet forum.

I wonder if the Internet Archive has preserved much of Reddit's old posts and comments? No one seems to have mentioned it.

I know there were at least a few projects not affiliated with IA that basically was a mirror copy of reddit. No idea what has happened to them at this point have not checked in a long time.
