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 think one of the most effective is answering posts people need help on while sourcing something that a user from the fediverse contributed. It's not aggressive. It's not a pitch. It's just there so people might visit it and get curious.
Like nobody likes door to door sales people. Or cold calls. And that's what the current approach is coming off to for people who don't want and aren't asking for alternatives. People who've felt strongly enough about leaving reddit already have. Those left don't care.
