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.

Not sure what part of Lemmy you hang in... and not sure I want to know.

Just see a bunch of the default stuff on my homepage.

Ah, you mean the "All" feed? Hm, might have to take a look, but normally I only use the Local and Subscribed ones. Not a big fan of scrolling through random trash.

Instances could likely add some ads to their Local feeds and communities, at least they're supposed to know what goes in there.

They’re not on beehaw, who knows what their instance federates with. Fwiw our version of c/all is pretty decent

Good point, they're from lemm.ee. I just happen to have an account there (to follow some lemmit bot) since it's a "federation friendly" instance, and they recently seem to have had a Hexbear problem: https://lemm.ee/post/4543536

Oh well, guess anyone running ads on a Lemmy instance, would have to run them only on local, or just on a per-post level.
