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.

To be fair, Reddit operates on a much larger scale even for small subs

Not playing devils advocate, but the burden of hosting lemmy is not comparable today

Totally fair, massive databases, multiple levels of APIs, hooks, events, thousands of CPU cores and thousands of gigs of ram. I was being snarky.

However, still doesn't even come close to justifying that cost
