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.

Lost trust, or never had trust to begin with.
I have personally lost trust as companies used to at least ACT like they gave a rats ass. They have clearly shown they don't give a flying Frick and do whatever they want, whenever they want and are extremely open about it now.
Teens and younger I feel have never seen companies that give the impression they care. I'm talking like 2015+ birthed children.
Hell, I'm a Carter baby and lost faith in tech by working at a startup in 1999 that had no idea what it was doing and backtracked to just being a commodity product with zero name recognition -- before that bubble burst. I quit after the all-hands where I asked what our distinct product now was and was told "that's not for you to worry about." It fucking is when most of my compensation is options.
