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.

No mention of alternatives in the article :(
It's rarely talked about, frustratingly. I didn't find Beehaw through articles or suggestions from people online, which I should've been able to do - I just found it because I have a friend into the fediverse space. Pure luck.
Imo the creators of third party apps should be talking about moving to alternatives (not moving their own apps, if they can't, but just being voices for it).
to be fair, reddit strung them along and made them think it was all smooth sailing until about last week. The devs have to figure out what they even plan to do before they can start announcing plans. And there aren't any real fully developed apps yet from what I can tell. I think, given some time, these developers may move their apps over or create new apps
I'm liking the Jerboa app. It feels kind of like RiF when I set up all the themes and everything.
Same , feels like a earlier version of Reddit is fun from about a decade ago.
