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.

Once you hang around the fediverse long enough you’ll get used to the media being full of trashy the takes on social media.
Bottom line is that there’s a bit of a shake up or fracturing, and the average media talking head isn’t qualified to be insightful about it other than some basic vague feeling that a lack of stability in the structure of mass media is frustrating to them.
I’ve figured that the average media person’s mentality is geared toward mass distribution which conflicts entirely with the fediverse which is about diversity, choice, non-capitalistic work and freedom, and so they either don’t get it or have an interest in it failing, which really just reveals how much mass media is probably a bunch of big-corp bootlickers.
Even this 'writers' take is that their path was to move away from community and threaded conversations into monologues.
The guy is a self important twit full of bad takes
No joke.
The whole "Yeah i went to a platform where people couldn't argue with me as easily and i didn't have to face any criticism or being wrong. It's far better this way" schtick was really obvious by the end of it, and super gross to have read all the way through that "Objective and unbaised" slog of very biased ramblings.
