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'm still amazed that they decided to do this, given how involved they are with this type of thing.

I had already moved to porkbun, but Google Sites was such an easy way to make a simple webpage with a domain.

If we are more scrutiny of vertically oriented monopolies, it may not be worth it to Google owning a registrar along with its search business.

It is a lot easier divesting the registrar.
