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.

Personally, I think all the anti-Threads stuff is paranoid rhetoric

From Wikipedia:

Paranoia is an instinct or thought process that is believed to be heavily influenced by anxiety, suspicion, or fear.

You might be correct. People don't trust in Meta and have concerns about potential consequences. According to this definition, paranoia isn't necessarily negative. Meta has made several questionable decisions in the past, such as its involvement in the genocide in Myanmar.
