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.

First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

Yeah, I unsubscribed from almost all the default subs and have endless block list of subs, since I stopped enjoying most of the content and lot of the communities got way too big to follow the rules of why certain subs were created in the first place. Upvotes and downvoting just don't work effectively once communities get past a certain size to curate content.

Although, there are subs where really large userbases are needed and useful like /r/gamedeals and /r/buildapcsales. But, lot of the discussion based ones don't need to be that big.

I wonder if we're big enough to have a hive like "PC Builders" or just "PC Gaming", so we at least have somewhere to discuss parts / ask for parts advice, offer build help, and so on. But then, I suppose "Technology" or "Gaming" would both be suitable spots for that at present.
