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.

Threads is garbage. You get one page of the people you subscribed to and then the next one is random promoted accounts that might be popular or whatever. The algorithm has more of a chokehold than it does even on Twitter. They can inflate their numbers by saying everyone with an Instagram account has Threads, but I'm not so sure people are actually using it.

Whatever one might say of BlueSky, it shows me the posts of the people I chose to follow, which is the whole point. Mastodon would be better in principle, but most people I follow don't use it so it doesn't do much for me.
