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.

It's disappointing seeing people cave so quickly when under the slightest inconvenience. It doesn't matter for me, though - I'm not going back. If anything, this has helped me realize the unhealthy relationship I had with Reddit and was a good way to break that.

To new and better things.

Same. Replacing doom scrolling on Reddit with posting on beehaw.

I started reading Reddit (and now Lemmy) through RSS feeds because I was exhausted from the constant scrolling. I think that's really helped me cut back on my link-aggregator of choice. The RSS feeds here could use some TLC though -- the feeds smoosh the title and url together and if there is any sort of post text, it's not much to go on.

What RSS feed application are you using? I’m thinking of doing the same. Just pulling in everything from multiple sources into one interface

I use https://reeder.app/ with https://feedly.com account. Checks all the boxes between being able to access my RSS feed on any device (as Feedly has a website) and having a great user experience on my phone / laptop.
