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 think you're spot on. I'm leaving because of the 3PA issue, I've been using RiF for ages and this whole ordeal made me aware of how much reddit had changed behind the filters I put up (RiF, RES, etc). I feel like I'm probably in the minority that are already jumping ship, I think there will be a lot more when 3PAs stop working and the effort required to learn a new app is about equivalent to picking up Lemmy casually.
It took me like 20 min to get up and running, and while I'm still learning I already have an app for it and its generating a feed that honestly feels almost nostalgic. There will be another influx of people unless a more accessible alternative crops up in the next two weeks.
