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 truly don't understand why people keep trying to use Twitter despite open and obvious changes designed to be hostile to users. Not to mention the reliability issues that continue to crop up as a result of axing nearly your entire engineering staff.
Some people can't figure out Mastodon, but I don't think enough of the people who can't figure out mastodon are realizing that nothing would be better than twitter. And I mean literally just not doing social media anymore would be a marked improvement over using twitter
I think most of them just don't even know about Mastadon. I didn't until after Reddit announced it's API changes and people started talking about Lemmy and the fediverse.
I just simply had heard about none of this.
Well, I apologize for my slightly elitist attitude. I sometimes forget just how online I am. I'm glad you're taking a chance on this technology! I hope you come to like it! It's come a long way since I first tried it 7 years ago, and I believe is now viable for people who want to talk about things
I'm a reasonably online person myself, I think it just depends on how deep in specific areas one delves. :)
Instead of diving into the Fediverse, last year I was exploring Royal Road as a place to write and self-publish a serial. While it's getting better known, if you aren't in the writing communities it's less likely that you know about it.
