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.

YouTube isn't "going away". What could happen is a lot of people switch to something better.

Just like a whole bunch of people have switched to Lemmy, which is better than Reddit. YouTube would still exist, at least for a while, just like Reddit still exists.

Everything goes away eventually. If YouTube stops being valuable to Google, it's going away.
