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.

There have been some privacy concerns regarding Lenny's implementation (deleted posts and whatnot). Which has kept some users second-guessing the change. I have tried aether before coming here, but sadly, there are not enough people there.

I just hope that the community from Reddit doesn't spread itself out too much :(

Why? Decentralisation is a good thing.

It's important for resiliency, but I'm afraid that many communities will loose a lot of value when they don't agree on a place to go

what's the value about? Maybe they can form multiple communities? Not everything has to be connected. It's also OK to be disconnected or spread out as a community from time to time.

Decentralisation is a good thing.

Only if the community and information don't get fragmented into smaller and smaller hard to find places.

You mean, like Discord? There's decentralisation which works (Fediverse) and decentralisation which doesn't (gated/closed off communities like Discord).
