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.

My Lumia 950XL remains my favourite phone I've ever owned. Live Tiles were amazing. I just unlocked my phone and had a dashboard constantly providing new information as opposed to a little dot in the corner of an icon indicating activity.
If not for the app gap and discontinuation of the OS, I'd still be happily using it.
