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've been following Cory loosely for almost two decades, and he's always done great stuff. I saw the Enshittification post make the rounds the other day, but didn't manage to read it. Thanks for reminding me, I've now read it, and feel like it made a lot of pieces fall into place.

Funny, more than once, I've said to my wife (who won't go near TikTok): "But it's so good at showing me things I'm actually interested in!" Which I recently noticed wasn't the case anymore. Now I have a plausible explanation as to why; what a shame.
