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.

Yeah. You will always get hivemind on insular'ish communities though. Lemmy is probably already just as bad in that regard.
I see your Lutheran+/r/atheism example and raise you dating a capitalist on Lemmy.
I see what you mean. Admittedly, I'm not even 24 hours on here or Lemmy or Tildes. I'm just searching and hoping one sticks.
You might also check out https://kbin.social
FWIW, some friends and I are running our own Lemmy instance, but we're not completely sold on it either yet. And just software-wise, some pretty important things are missing. There's actually no way to see, besides going into the database and querying it directly, a list of users on your own instance, for example.
And of course community-wise, Lemmy.ml (the most popular instance, run by lemmy devs) has some questionable moderation. It's probably better to read about that on another instance, since discussion of censorious moderation is itself subject to censorious moderation.
I made an account on kbin but it isn't vibing yet. So far, both this and lemmy.ml as well as Tildes have been the ones to step so far in this early period of trying new things out.
