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 don't post on reddit since I know how futile it is to create any change given its size, but given Lemmy is small I might as well give it a try here.

I've been seeing a lot of posts here lately similar the doom and gloom clickbait headlines you would see from news companies. In fact, most top posts seem to have that "Reddit feel" to them.

Please know that posts don't have to all be negative, there exists positive news in the world and especially positive news when it comes to technology.

For example, did you know a release of a new fully open source LLM called OpenLLaMA just got announced by the Researchers at Berkeley AI Research?

Is there really a doomscroll-free community, besides maybe the mental illness communities? All social media is designed to be addicting.

I find hackerdaily.io to be the perfect implementation of this. it shows the top 100 posts of the previous day for hackerNews in a clean interface.

You can't comment because it's from the previous day but I rarely comment anyways so it's ideal for me.
