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.

I'd be a liar if I claimed that I don't feel a bit sad too. But even then, I think that I'm more amused and excited than sad? (It's a weird mix of feelings, I know.)
And maybe because I'm getting old, I'm learning how to enjoy the brevity of the things. Reddit was born, thus Reddit will die; content was created, thus it'll be lost; so goes on. Nothing shall last forever.
That said, I think that most content will eventually migrate elsewhere. Some will be lost in the process, sure, but that's a given when handling this sort of closed platform. Better now than later, as lingering on Reddit will only increase the amount of content that will be lost there.
