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.

To be fair, if i didn’t learn about lemmy, i would be back on reddit at this point. It just kills the boredom in a way nothing else does.
I have partially retreated back to the message boards for my niche interests, which is nice in some respects. I do find myself craving the "mindless scroll without specific topic" experience, which lemmy is providing well enough (and I assume will only improve). My desire to discontinue reddit is 40% what is being done now and 60% what I fear/strongly suspect it will become. For me that's enough to leave. If a search engine drops me there I might read a thread from desktop, but my days of browsing it like my father did the newspaper are over.
