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 would rather not have Zuckerberg controlling more social platforms, but at the same time I really want Musk to crash and burn.

They're going to quickly realize they're already reaching that audience via Facebook; the people using this service will be the same people.

They might keep those users more engaged with this new app though. The Twitter format might be more successful for facilitating outrage and arguments than the Facebook format is.

And more engagement means more adverts shown and thus more revenue.
