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.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I kinda doubt that this is likely to be killed off. It's not it's own platform like Reddit, it just takes content that's more likely to be made by people from websites like Reddit, blogs, and other social media platforms and puts it all in one place.
But who knows with Google.

That's how I read it too. I guess there is a legitimate concern that Google is aiming to be the aggregated "front page of the internet" by providing the front end that people use to interact with the content they link to, but we shall see.
