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.

Hey. I was watching this thread and created an account just to say that you are right! Bombarding a user with popup stuff is one of the things i criticized in my blog. I completely forgot that i turned on this setting when i set it up (whoops). I changed the "notification-question" to only show once after you visited the site for the fifth time.
Thanks for visiting my site though and for pointing this out to me! <3
Really interesting article! Most importantly to me, it has spurred some really good conversations.
Personally, I don’t think early web is the answer. Modern web usage has allowed for better accessibility to all ages and types. Content aggregation allows for (but doesn’t guarantee) more views and opinions. There are certainly elements we can get back from the early days, but I think we still need work to find a perfect web
One could argue that this is part of the problem.
Interesting. I agree that there are some that make the internet a worse place, but surely we wouldn’t want to close the internet to all the others that could use it for good?
