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.

It's curious to me if they could have deprecated and refused to support these features rather than take them out. They might run until they don't, ya know? When they did this last year and removed "let's play a game" my kid was pretty bummed that we couldn't have game show games on road trips anymore. I'm sure these things may disappoint some people.
When this happens it's often because a backend component gets rewritten and somebody decides that it's too much work to re-implement some features for the new backend. It's much easier to come up with a PR spiel for why removing the features is actually a good thing.
