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.

Honestly my biggest problem is:
... what the hell am I supposed to do other than use these apps society?
Meet people online via shared interests. I'm not one to tout Reddit, but really engaging in niche communities there gives you wide exposure specifically targeted. Don't expect immediate results, but it is a valid method.
Nope, then you get people complaining that “this is not a dating spot”.
I mean, tell that to my ex-fiancee where it took us a year to get engaged after meeting on Reddit. Then Covid hit and we couldn't meet. We still talk, years later, but now we're in "old friends" mode.
