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.

Would love to see a list of large subreddits that aren't participating and the statements (if any) they put out explaining why.

Hell, I'll let this be my first comment; it's on a different instance than my account to boot! I'm running into some issues with some of the newer instances not being federated; some of the subreddits I was hoping to replace here are unavailable as a result. Still, I'm happy enough to be a part of something new and different.

r/programming is private even though I think a lot of the mods were reddit employees, I think even u/spez. what is going on lol
If the AMA taught us anything, it's that spez doesn't actually use reddit. Let alone understand it.

If i may dream, the actual solution to this issue would be a mod/user takeover along the lines of a factory occupation, or a more peaceful worker buyout. (Sometimes the former leads to the latter.)
When the tools of production are a server farm, how do they get taken over? What does it look like?
To be a little more grounded, the real targets of this action should not be "reddit" or /u/spez. It should be whoever is actually in charge. Do we know who that is?
