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.

It's inevitable and won't be stopped. See Cory Doctorow's article on the future (and current state of) TikTok, Amazon, Facebook, etc. Reddit is the same. Reddit as we knew it is gone: move on.
And to realize that it's an endless loop if users keep jumping one platform after another, better to break free of that cycle by going open-source/federated network.
Yeah, people need to realize that maintaining a good social media platform just isn't profitable without enshittifying it with ads or paywalling key features.
Yeah, lemmy seems much nicer than reddit at this point.
Wow. That was quite the read. Thank you very much for sharing that, it definitely clears up a few things that I had sort of intuited, but not really articulated in my own head.
Good for including Steam in that list. The amount of die hard Steam fanatics is crazy and sad.
I'm glad to come across this article again - I first encountered it a couple of weeks ago on Hacker News due to some thread about Twitter drama and "enshittification" is now my favourite word.
