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.

Like it or not, years of insight, experience and expertise live in Reddit threads. But accessing some of them just got harder.

Is that really a thing? When I search for anything I very, very rarely see a Reddit link in the results. The last time I remember was a question about i3wm.

I think they might mean folks who are using google to search reddit, for example, the search term "migrating to lemmy reddit". I know I append "reddit" to a lot of my google searches and now with the blackout, those search results will only take you to a private page for the subreddit.

I was trying to lookup stuff about mechanical keyboards on ddg earlier today, and several results on the first page were reddit threads. So it can definitely happen with some other hobbies/topics I imagine.
