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.

Browse link aggregator website. Complain about links being aggregated

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

No but that's specifically what i'm complaining isn't happening, i see the same link 5 times in a row.

It feels like we need an extra level of aggregation for posts. It would be great if all posts for a certain topic could be grouped together. Maybe hashtags or something.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah it's honestly very strange that they don't implement a proper tag system, i can't imagine it would be difficult (like bro it's an extra array for every post) and it would give a ton of flexibility to the ecosystem.

It's also a feature reddit has...

I would love hashtags as metadata or in the text of the post

Kbin supports hashtags (and I included a few when I posted this), but there's no filtering option yet (that I'm aware of, at least), so it's still mostly just for discovery purposes.

People did move here from reddit after all. That's why I recommend apps like lemmy connect on Android with keyword filtering. You can't control what people post, but you can regain control by controlling what you see.
