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's a time and a place for everything, with apologies to John Lennon.
Lemmy is a great place for longform discussions, but the vast majority of my posts and comments tend to be of the one-line, weary-columnist snark variety.
Much of the news this days is "this is objectively bad," making attempts at discourse difficult.
Do you think the jump from viewing on pc to viewing on mobile phone may play a part?
On a big old square screen you could look a decent amount of replies fast, phone scroll through 2/3 long posts becomes a chore.
I only use my phone under duress. The screen is entirely too small. It's a phone. It's meant for calls and texting.
