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.

Pre Twitter takeover this would have been surprising. Now seems par for the course.
I've blocked every ad I've ever seen on the app. I haven't used it in a while and I doubt I'll ever go back now.
The only thing left that I use it for is getting alerts about live police chases so I can tune in. Ill leave that going until those people move to other platforms.
RIP Twitter
WTF is “a stronger form of mute?”
It probably means you can’t prevent someone with Twitter Blue to show up in your timeline.
