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.

This sounds kind of mean, but I kind of agree. One thing I miss from the earlier days of the internet was that communities could be more niche, and the slight barrier to entry of making a new account for a forum or something meant that you'd mostly get people who were very interested in a topic in the community. It feels kind of bad to be in favor of barriers for a community, but I think it can make a bit of a difference in the mix of people that you get and how the community feels.
