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.

Following the reddit fiasco, I've been looking for other communities to get tech news from. I was active on HN a long time ago but it's been a hot minute, and I left because the politics were pretty bad; lots of free speech maximalists who loved to just ask questions, especially about queer people.

Is it better now? Worse? Just different?

I'm mostly lurking at HN, but I do like it. I find the submissions interesting and most discussions are high quality. There are some subjects that are... let's just say not HN-friendly and any discussion ends up in the same echo chamber. But overall a thumbs up from me.
