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.

That number ended up being more than 8000 and there are still more than 7000 in private or restricted mode. Although they are starting to come back online now.
He's right though - it will pass. The question is, will Reddit be the same once it does pass? Will enough moderators and contributors leave to reduce the quality of the content?
Personally, I don't really care anymore. I'm not going back if I can't use a third party app and I haven't had a problem using Lemmy for the past two days instead. I just need to find the best communities for me which will take time but I'm sure that it'll be a good replacement.
I’m at a point where even if I could use third party apps again I wouldn’t return to Reddit. Don’t want to support a guy like spez.
I've discovered Lemmy, which I like a lot, so I wouldn't return to reddit either.
Although I do miss the large communities, but oh well, hopefully more people will jump ship towards the fediverse.
