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.

That's what I expected as well. My guess is that it's mostly somewhat tech savvy people that care about the changes. The more casual users will probably keep using reddit. Basically the lifecycle of most social media tbh
Yeah. I doubt there will be any mass migration. Instead, we'll have a few high quality users, which in my opinion is the best case.
Yeah, I actually don't mind the smaller user base. Although it looks like I'll have to miss out on a few things (r/HistoricalCostuming and r/FashionHistory users don't seem to be here yet in substantial numbers, for example). So long as we're all excellent to each other it's all good though (:
Party on dudes
@annenas Really hoping that the userbase may spread out a bit, too. It's awesome that we've had v. techy early adopters but I'm really looking forward to other folks maybe coming on board
agree. I am hoping the federated instances wont be overwhelming for folks.
