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.

If these subreddits all had a sticky thread linking to their new magazines/communities on other platforms, then it would help them grow.

But they don't. They just make a copy/paste post about reddit killing 3rd party apps and "go use alternatives", most people need directly linking to them with a simple description of how they work.

Could you add something on the post submission page suggesting that folks also submit their content to your kbin community? Maybe don't push to completely move, just suggest that content submissions go to both places for now.

I'll have to run it by the other mods.

Reddit has been allegedly banning these accounts for spam, curbing the amount of linking to specific alternatives for the most part (except Discord, which IMO isn't an alternative)
