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.

it just works! I don't know what happens with this reply because I guess beehaw.org is offline right now, but I figure you'll eventually see it? That this is possible with an organic collection of instances is pretty damn cool, and I hope it keeps on working as more people pile on
responding from beehaw: Yep, we can see you!
I'll say that sometimes, I click the "Reply" button after writing my reply and it just sits there, seemingly loading forever. Generally has been doing that when a thread was on beehaw.org or lemmy.ml
so the communities that run on a specific instance are dead in the water if that instance is frozen? I thought that maybe the other instances might continue exchanging posts regardless of whether the original instance is currently online
Honestly, I'm not sure. I would hope it could continue with other non-frozen Instances. But in my very limited experience so far, I've seen it do that (click Reply, and turn into a spinning circle) a few times. Just never finishes.
