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.

Glorious.
r/formula1 is reopening as NSFW to "comply to the fullest extent of our abilities with these changes":
That's absolutely fantastic lmao
Brilliant! Simply brilliant!
One of the legal advice subs -- I can't remember which -- was going forward requiring post approval from mods because they value community safety. But as they are unpaid volunteers they estimate it could take up to 14 days for post approval.
The only thing that could have made it better would be if they added a "Moderators need to work much more inefficiently now due to having to use the official reddit app's terrible UI"
I think that was /r/scams. Their post was fantastic
Oh man. I wouldn't want to anger a bunch of people who make it a hobby to fight scammers in a social psychology arms race.
Thank you for the rundown! It almost makes me want to go back and take a look at the shit show... But tis a silly place and I shant be going back.
Trust me, the shit show is glorious. I even instinctively upvoted a couple of medieval memes but quickly realized what I was doing and closed the tab.
THAT'S what a rundown is!
I did, it was glorious!
/r/Piracy also celebrated the fact that reddit officially endorsed them.
fucking lmao.
/r/woodworking is debating going back to normal, or posting pictures of Norm Abrams and Nick Offerman. I'll let you guess which one is winning.
That should be a nice complement to r/onlyfans
...I'm afraid to ask what "nofans" used to be. I hadn't heard of it before.
Don't be afraid. Nofans - short for - No onlyfans - meaning content of normal women not out to make money (there was a version for couples too)
Maybe someone should bring it back here somewhere.
Let's be real if you want to gain popularity for your R****t alternative you just need porn and such (if you seperate the paid kind from the free link stuff you are golden and will grow fast sadly my knowledge on how to create such a place are limited in the programming department.
Absolutely fucking glorious!
It makes me so happy seeing reddit come together against this bullshit
It is like watching a slow train wreck. You know you should just look away, but you just cannot.
Shitposting is funny because the auto mod they are using to remove posts cites removing the post in order to save bandwidth for Reddit. The auto mod post is much longer than post being removed and contains K's. I found it funny anyway.
I need this, faith in humanity has been at a low ebb
It feels empowering to be part of a pissed off collective.
I'd like to know more about the "determining close days" for some subreddits. Won't they just open them back up?
I love to see the malicious compliance.
Some subs like r/fuckcars will be doing “touch grass Tuesday”, where the sub will be restricted every Tuesday.
I think r/HarryPotter is still polling the same idea. Which gets me wonder what if most of the popular subs decided to do this.
What a bowl of fresh air.
Absolutely amazing, what other subreddits are thinking to follow suite?
Bread stapled to trees is only going to allow four subjects moving forward on certain weeks, one of which is John Oliver, another being literal garbage, lol.
