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.

Seems more like an alternative to TikTok no?

Good - the more traffic taken away from Reddit, the better in my opinion.

The majority of people that use Google don't actually click through to the sources to read more, so if discussions are made more accessible directly in the search results, Reddit will likely notice the impact on their ad impressions

I don't think this feature will be anything like reddit or lemmy. But I do see what they are going for.

Unless they have something like AI powered moderation, it will turn into a shit show really quickly.

These are just Lenses or whatever, smaller search engines had them for ages. I'm still waiting for DuckDuckGo to add them, strange that even Google was faster than them
