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.

The linked article focuses on Mastodon. I'd be interested to hear more about how this relates to Lemmy in your experience.
- Ad. 1. I don't care what's your skin color as it doesn't matter when we discuss things.
- Ad. 2. Literally makes zero sense. If something is post-worthy, why would anyone not post it just because of being white?
- Ad. 3. I do report racism no matter who's the victim.
- Ad. 4. I don't care who's behind project if it's good and worth supporting.
Other suggestion: Stop trying to force others to comply with your "solutions" to problems that only exist inside your mind and what's important don't even apply to media that doesn't let you see or know the other person. I know nothing about 99,9% of people on Lemmy hence let me judge them and their projects by what they write and not by who they are "in real life". It's almost like you are trying to make people ashamed for that they were born white.
