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 don't know man, chat apps and systems like Twitter and Mastodon aren't a good place for journalism. I had to stop using both, its just full of chats and any kind of messages from all over the place, including advertisements and links and what not. Not a good place to discuss anything. To me these are just advertisement platforms.

Super agree with that. Framing this feature as specific to journalism was a poor choice. The feature is useful for any writer/blogger/joe schmoe on the web
