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.

Okay for real, the amount of people who just do not give one single shit about disabled folks has been disgusting. Fine, you (other redditors) want to make fun of us 'nerds' who have been using reddit for 12 years? Fine. Not seeing the big deal about ADA compliance is a different thing altogether.
It's like Microsoft removing text to speech on Windows, or Playstation banning specialized controllers.
I had a disabled roommate for three years. We were best friends, and I eventually got comfortable enough to joke about it with him. No offense was intended. I was only joking about how terrible the reddit app is.
Oh you misunderstand, I mean in my conversations on Reddit! Just pure vitriol from people over there saying anyone who uses 3rd party apps are stupid/neckbeards/whatever. Lol you're good, it's those people I'm annoyed at
Oh, okay! Glad I didn’t come off as insensitive. Yeah, behavior like that is incredibly frustrating to see!
No not at all, I've had some real jerks over there.
k, I'll just go fuck myself then, reddit asshole
