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.

OK, third time trying to post this comment after my previous two never went through 🥲
I've seen a lot of people predict that this would be their next move if the blackouts continued. It's sad to see them actually begin with the threats though :/
I'm wondering if this is a sort of desperation move because of advertisers looking at removing spending from reddit if things continue - starting to put the screws on the mods. :( Particularly since they say advertisers would start thinking about moving away if things stayed dark for a couple of weeks.
I don't know, I'm heading to bed, rewritten this three times and I'm not a good speaker, so apologies for it not being very coherent! 😅
Anyway, still many shames on reddit. I hope the blackouts continue so that advertisers leave. Booooo reddit booooo.
So much for no impact on revenue. Lol
