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 think Twitter might do it to standardize the number of characters a link takes up in a tweet? 23 characters IIRC
That used to be the case, don’t think it is anymore. I don’t remember though, I ditched that shit hole.
Mastodon manages to do it without a shortener, so I don’t believe that’s the answer.
