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.

Anything that gives you status over others will attract people. How many people do you think would actually want to mod twitch chat if they didn't get a sword icon?

Honestly... I mod twitch chat for the bot commands to help the streamers for which I mod. I wish I could turn off the sword icon... But I mod for streamers that typically have <500 viewers at a time.
