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.

RIF will be shutting down on June 30, 2023, in response to Reddit Inc's API changes and their hostile treatment of developers building on their platform.

RIF was my way to get to Reddit. I will miss it terribly. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

My melancholy is tempered by the Fedirverse, Lemmy, and particularly, here at Beehaw! 😄

This feels like a better and nicer home, anyway. I'm sad for the loss, and this smaller community won't have what the scale of Reddit's user base could bring...but the nicer and happier community here has its own virtues.

It reminds me of the best of Slashdot, among other small and very valuable online communities of yore. 🙂
