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.

The internet in 2023 also brought us Mastodon, Lemmy and the rest of the fediverse (yes, they were there before. But the corporate social media finally managed to piss off enough users) and resurgence of IRC, Usenet, XMPP, etc, while services like matrix are going strong.
Yes - those are more exclusive and smaller in size. But they are viable (except perhaps the really old protocols). And we finally have something to look forward to. 2023 wasn't all that bad.
