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.

Yeah, I don't care about third party apps or API anymore. Their handling of it became very clear that they are headed in the direction of a Zuckerberg run type multi billion dollar company fully monetizing and extracting data from users, so I don't feel like using their sketchy app like I would never use a Facebook app or Tiktok app, or make an account for either of those two. And don't want to provide location based behavioral data they get from ip addresses and what type of interests I'm into so they can sell that type of demographic data to companies.
People share way more on reddit than they do to people they know because of pseudonyms, so yeah I don't want to directly provide anymore than I have to towards the profits of a large corporation.
