I’m just not interested in hearing what bullshit FAANG is up to, I want to talk about linux kernel patches and raspberry pi revisions and maybe hear what people other than grifters are doing with neural networks.
I’ve wanted something like that as well. I’m currently playing around with BlueSky feeds to get streams of science and technology content. Lemmy’s technology communities are often tech drama and or Linux stuff, and miss out on other things that are happening in the industry.
Ah please could you post some recommendations on who to follow on Bluesky?
You’ll probably enjoy Lobsters: https://lobste.rs/
I concur. It’s like HN but with less AI/VC BS.
Is it still invite only? I’ve been curious. I have Tildes.
Edit: I should probably just lurk. I don’t comment on tildes anyway. Don’t feel my comment style is up to the standard lol.
Dunno about communities, but https://www.science.org/ and https://www.sciencenews.org/ are all about science
Check out hackaday maybe? It’s primarily hobbyist stuff, but they’ve been peppering in some original pieces about tech innovations and trends.
At the very least, nobody is trying to sell you anything.
Good post. I have 3 new subs now thanks to the comments :D
I like phoronix.com but don’t bother reading the article comments.
Or sometimes do read the comments as a reminder on why you shouldn’t.
That’s what I do with local news articles, I try to read the comments every few months just to remind myself who my neighbors are…
You just need a mod team willing to enforce those rules.
This is specific to open source, but perhaps a good starting point: https://opensourcely.org/
Probably Hackaday. https://lemmy.world/c/hackaday@rss.ponder.cat
Phys.org or maybe nature? They’re mostly just seem to be reposts of journals or Nature articles, but they don’t usually have drama and can often be rather interesting. They aren’t necessarily about technology, just scientific advances which is a nice change from all of the enshitification news that almost any tech hub is blaring.
Might scope out the forums and comments sections at Ars Technica. There’s a wealth of information from a ton of the regulars.
LWN is good for Linux kernel related content.
Hacker News is probably your best bet as long as you don’t go too deep in the comments
Same question. I kinda hoped it would be here, but many lemmy communities are just reddit with a better UI. Lots of good links in this thread tho!
Good thread I found so many good communities.
