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.

@itmightbethew These are all great but /r/interestingasfuck seems to have hit on something that could have a real impact: Reddit apparently can't sell advertising on NSFW subs. Imagine if /r/pics and /r/aww and other tip subs just opened themselves up to whatever, it would down Reddit in porn and destroy the site's reputation. I'm sure the admins would try to force them back to SFW, but it could be a powerful tactic.
You're dead right. If $$$ are Spez's priority then that's what we should target. A knock on effect is that it catches the attention of the casual redditor. I have a couple friends who read reddit but were clueless on these issues. Until the NSFW content. One DM'd me tonight
""I was on lunch, and I was like "WTF happened to my reddit feed??""
so that's working
