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.

The exchange is about Meta's upcoming ActivityPub-enabled network Threads. Meta is calling for a meeting, his response is priceless!

An infamously vicious predator walks up and bares its fangs at us, and half of you want to pet it instead of fleeing for your lives.

It's hard to overstate my disappointment right now.

Meta isn't as cute as predators in the wild.

They're the type to freeze instead of fight or flight

Freezing would actually probably be better, in this case I think its fawn.

Most ot the users here still have Facebook/Instagram accounts they use daily. They like to talk up the fediverse but also post minion memes to their grandma. It's kinda sad, but it is what it is, and that's why you see so many Meta defenders.
