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.

I didn't reddit will go away for a while. It's almost too big to fail. The large reddit run subs are still live and active. Users who don't sub to any subs that went dark may not even know anything happened. I have to imagine reddit knew they would lose users of 3rd party apps so it likely isn't a large portion of where they make money. I think there will probably be a decline in content for a short time, then we will see new subs emerge with people who don't care about the API lock down, ads, Chinese investors, bots, and reposts.
Yep. My guess is that there’s going to be so much karma farming bots and reposts, that it’s going to be absolutely wild.
