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.

Not to mention there are A LOT more slurs. There are pages and pages, it wouldn't be a list like this.

Would be a flag in the backend not a full list sent to the client.

You don’t get your slurs sent via your authentication provider’s “freezepeach-as-a-service” API? Sounds like your app is “woke” smh
