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.

Maybe it's just me, but something always seemed sketchy about Kick. Their ability to throw around hundreds of millions of dollars without any clear ownership smells fishy. I personally wouldn't be surprised if in 5 years there was an in depth Coffeezilla video exposing the platform.
Yeah, I think it's gonna be a gambling cesspool. Given the investors, that's the goal of it anyway.
It's a shame mixer had such a shit user experience, that could have been a proper twitch competitor without the sketchy gambling.
