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 even know what that means. Tik Tok is a stand alone social network. I also don’t understand the need to have decentralized replacements for every social network. It’s also not realistic because the fediverse isn’t about profit and that’s what lead corporations and massive development teams to create these apps. People have to come over organically and there are already good experiences. A crappier version of an app or service they like isn’t going to convince casuals.
I would say they are not about profit yet. Eventually everyone sells out if the price is right.
Everyone here gets bent when anything Fediverse related takes any money. I’m not sure how people expect these apps to develop.
