Shh.... nobody tell them about the Fediverse.

On a separate note, anyone else finding Wired to suddenly be like the Boomer of tech publications? Ars Technica and Techdirt are vastly superior sources these days. Seems like Wired does nothing but pump out stale conglomerated opinion pieces that smell vaguely like Larry Ellison's sweat socks.

conde nast, the same company that is a major investor in reddit owns them. You may also be familiar with several of their other publications, Vogue, Golf Digest and The New Yorker, to name but a few.

They also own Ars Technica, which as @Arotrios mentioned, is still decent. You can’t just blame the owners, the editors still have some level of control over the content they put out.
