News community around technology, social media platforms, information technology and governmental policy surrounding it.
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. Use original link
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacks
Any kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.

Stay on topic. Keep it relevant.

these people are so mind-numbingly risk adverse they don't greenlight any new properties and tacitly reheat old ones there will eventually be a whole generation of people who never saw anything new or worthwhile from them
Adapt or die. Hollywood has chosen the latter. They have chosen poorly.
On the bright side, they are in good company with most of America at this time.
That's just late-capitalism in general. No large companies are innovating anymore. They simply let smaller companies pop up and then either buy it or kill them with legal or market dominance based maneuvers. I mean if all that mattered to you was short term profit, would you take any risks? Easier to destroy than create of that's all you care about.
Well, Hollywood seems to prefer quantity over quality. Now 99% of everything is junk that's not worth wasting your time on.
Well the newer content is not exactly what I call great. There are good movies and TV shows here and there but most of it is junk.
99.99% of American movies and TV is so shit, I wouldn't even pirate it. There is a whole planet full of interesting, intelligent, educational and very well written content. Creativity left the US when the whole nation became a massive greedy corporation.
And they will learn nothing from this and release 16 more super hero movies, remakes nobody asked for, and prequels/sequels to movies that came out 20 - 30 years ago. I'm more excited for the movie Iron Lung because it's being made by a YouTuber that actually gives a shit about what they are making vs rehashed bullshit that focuses more on "second screen" attention instead of making something worth our time.
I don't care for Hollywood in the least but this isn't a positive development. Influencer culture really needs to die. I'd much rather see people switch to markets like anime and K-drama, as both of those are largely still packed to the brim with good art.
