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.

Nobody is upset that Reddit is not good for active support comminities. They're upset that they're having their options taken away and being exploited for profit.
Lemmy will never "be that way" so long as people like you perpetuate a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I didn't mean that was a complaint against reddit, I just meant it's a reason a lot of people have been reluctant to leave. I'd love to see the site die personally, but I still think it's a little more complicated than self respect.
Also while yeah I hate to be a person who complains and then doesn't take any action, I know for a fact that I don't have it in me to moderate a support group between jobs.
It's not. You'd rather let Reddit exploit you so you can continue participating in those communities than to lose access to those communities.
You don't have to do anything additional. All you have to do is stop going to Reddit.
Yup, there’s a handful of niche communities that just don’t exist on lemmy. I joined their discords instead, some of the content crosses over anyway
