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.

Mastodon literally uses email as an analogy for how it works. You're just obfuscating the issue. Email is much more well equipped for the problems being discussed. Federation just spreads the problem to thousands of servers. I'm fine with Mastodon becoming politicized, but I'm not fine with email becoming politicized.
Mastodon offers no real benefit over email as a standard. It's the same work, except higher degree of censorship being possible.
