There's a whole instance dedicated to programming!

Technology
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.
Subcommunities on Beehaw:
This community's icon was made by Aaron Schneider, under the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
They are called "communities" in lemmy. You can search for existing ones here: https://browse.feddit.de/
There is one. !programming@beehaw.org
this is how you do proper cross-instance links for now
(click view source on my comment)
Wouldn't it be better to just write c/programming@beehaw.org straight up instead of obfuscating it behind the link?
Can't click that though, and the ! is the normal formatting for searches, all the sidebars show the community name with the !
I'm guessing eventually the Lemmy UI will do this automatically
We had a stackoverflow alternative called heapoverflow.ml, which was it's own lemmy server with communities for different programming languages etc. But after a year or something and not much use it was shut down unfortunately :(
Ah damn that would have been sweet. Hopefully with whats happening something will get setup again
