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 never knew any component of Reddit was ever open-source? But yeah, that AMA was so bleak. I'm enjoying Lemmy a lot right now, so maybe I can do without Reddit.
It's just that Reddit has been like my one cultural constant in the last decade. I have ADHD, so I tend to go through phases of things but the sheer diversity of Reddit and all the years of history of the site meant that it's been a really big part of my life. I know that's probably similar for a lot of other folks.
@WatTyler @Sailor_jets #Reddit used to be #FOSS years ago, and there's an archived version of their code here:

IDK if anybody's actually using it to host a forum site though.
Wow, I legit never knew. Thanks for the link, that's really interesting.
