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.

I’m pretty uneasy about the association, but the attitude of Beehaw is the antithesis of it so I guess it balances out..?
I did play with Kbin first but the interface felt kinda broken to me, buttons not reacting and the like..
Tbh, it's floss so I don't care who's working on it. I just don't really get kbin ui myself, lemmy is far closer to reddit for me. If I wanted the microblogging I already have Mastodon so I don't see why it's trying to do both. I prefer the old unix philosophy myself.
Kbin just feels like a home project to my eyes. Hope it goes well and the federation will be absolutely amazing.
I want I like Kbin, and in time I think I will, but the UX is a little too unfinished right now. I'll keep checking in on it and I'm excited to see two things that conceivably offer a similar experience to Reddit gaining traction. Big-up the fediverse!
