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.

The default site literally doesn't work on mobile anyway so it's not like it makes much difference.
The site worked well enough on mobile... Reddit would say it worked too well. Sites can't collect nearly as much data about users as apps can, so they've got an incentive to try and get people to use the official app. The app isn't good though, so the only way they can get people to switch over is by making the site worse, and forcing people to use the app.
