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.

This is kind of like the Wizards of the Coast / OGL situation for me - just enough to make me consider the alternatives, and realize that the alternatives are a better long term solution.
Reddit has become overrun with crypto scam spammers, and they don't appear to be making any attempt to control it. We'll see if the fediverse can do a better job.
I was thinking exactly the same thing! I'll probably still use reddit for some things (e.g. adding "reddit" onto the end of a google search to try to find perspectives from real people), just like I'll probably still play D&D sometimes. But they've made it clear that management is focused on short-term profit at the expense of what keeps the community viable long term, and so they've lost my trust as a company.
I'm hoping that Kobold Press' alternative ttrpg is easy to switch to from D&D. They do good work and I'd hate to just trash all my D&D stuff.
Me and my group swapped to pathfinder 2e its a definate change i miss my kuotoa
Lets hope Reddit doesn't hire Pinkertons to drag us back to Reddit©
