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.

All the worthwhile content creators will (or already have) move on and it'll be even more of AI generated content circlejerk than it already is. No one should feel sorry for lurkers being lazy.

The power lies in leaving Reddit behind.

they aren't powerless, they just leave.

[–] Lells@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

The ones who stay probably do see themselves as powerless, which is a pretty self-fulfilling prophecy.

I wonder what would happen if redditors just start ignoring rules... 🤔

If they are sick of it then come here or to Lemmy.

I've deleted reddit from my phone. I haven't deleted my account, it's just going to remain dormant. Had smth like 200k+ karma. I'm just gonna chill here instead, it seems a much happier place. That, and the fact that I'm not constantly doomscrolling on my phone has done wonders for my mental health (I only do social media on my PC now, and sparingly at that).
