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 would prefer to have Mastodon stay out of the limelight because we might need it after they target BlueSky. Mastodon is safe from attacks by an incoming autocratic administration precisely because it is too small for them to give any fucks about.
That's not how autocratic regimes are operating. Small communities are never safe. In fact, they are convenient targets to make an example of.
They can also be infiltrated with sockpuppets far more easily, like Russia has been doing for a long time now.
the EU has been promoting Mastodon and the fediverse ever since Musk bought twitter, encouraging european governments to use Mastodon as a broadcasting platform and funding it through NGI.
