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.

about 50% content is like this, no matter what view you select. I think /r/pics has the right idea; it is so dominating. Other subs should change their post to be like this (with their own messages) I think.

Also, what sub did spez mod in 2008?

Worse, he was one of the ones decrying against closing it "for free speech"

Kind of. You could add anybody as a mod to your sub and it would auto-approve the addition at the time.

The bad part is really that he allowed that sub to begin with, and was aware of it without taking any action. Running a site with entirely user-generated content isn’t easy, but that was definitely some low-hanging fruit there
