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.

Let's be real here though, has anyone clicked on a digital news site in the last few years and been happy with the result? Half of them are paywalled and the ones that aren't are absolutely filled to the brim with obnoxious auto play ads, it's no wonder people don't click news site links anymore. I've got no sympathy for them.
Not only that, but a vast majority of them you can tell were never proof read or edited in any way and read horribly. I stopped clicking on news sites mainly because of that. I would get so annoyed reading an article that it was clear not even the author decided to take a moment and read back to themselves.
