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.

Really impressed with the reporting from the verge on the Reddit protest and beyond.

I have been documenting some of the downfall myself-

And let me just say- I don't think the verge is missing many details at all. They have been ON TOP of this one.

I think The Verge has been getting better over time. Its kind of a breath of fresh air they seem to mostly stay politically neutral and they occasionally use tasteful euphemisms while reporting very accurately. I miss Paul and Dieter but the newer people are doing great work too.

Agreed 100%. They use to just publish complete click-bait bullshit stories.

Nice summary, I'll link confused normie friends to it.

BTW, the header on your site is very large on Firefox mobile

Oh wow, that doesn't look good at all.

Chrome:

Firefox focus: Yup. Looks like crap.

I'll have to mess around with this when I get time.

That is an awesome write up; direct, clear, and not sensationalised! Thank you for taking the time to do that.

They have come a long way since the "Screw with confidence" fiasco of that PC building tutorial.
