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.

And yet the fediverse has the opposite problem. You can never trust that something you deleted has actually been deleted on other servers.
There is no solution for that beyond properly setting user expectations. Users may want to understand that anything published on the internet should be assumed to be a permanent record. Anybody that can access a post on any website has the ability to copy and re-post it on another website such as an internet archive.
