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.

Well yeah, reflecting on what you're saying i think any recommendation on the home page is an ad. But I agree the podcasts are more intrusive, especially if you never listen to them.

Why don't you just stick to the search or library tab if you don't want the recommendations on the home page? Ideally they'd have an option to set the default tab, but if you don't want any recommendations they're pretty easy to avoid
