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 am pretty much done with reddit and Google. My use of those two platforms have dropped to about 5% of my total online time.

asdfasdfsadfasfasdfFor me reddit is now for searching "xxxxx solution reddit"
I try not to even bother with this anymore, half the time the comments are deleted.
Even then the snippets you can find in the replies are more usefull than most forums ever were.
I don't use Google, maybe 3 times a year to see if the search results are better. I don't use YouTube too much directly, instead using alternatives to watch YouTube content, like FreeTube. However I regret having an old and important Googlemail account...
Leaving Reddit was a bit easier, but I miss some of the communities, it was rich and single account to handle everything. Since the day I snapped my fingers and logged off, I stayed logged off.
