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.

I don't install Facebook app on phone and find ways to remove/disable if come pre-installed.
Pretty much all social network platform are browsed with a container tab.
I look at the link before I click, if it's super long or some google redirecting shit I just DDG and search the keywords myself. (is there a firefox extension that does this automatically?? removing the redirect/tracking link and convert back into normal link)
