It is not
It’s about a website that is on the internet that runs on technology
And by your swiss cheese logic, everything we do these days is tech news.
It's a common fallacy that drops community quality like a rock.
It's like programming horror being flooded with things that aren't even marginally related to programming. But since technically all our technology is programmed, then it's technically programming related.
Well now all I can think of is cheese while I’m on a technology community. My day is ruined.
Sounds like an improvement though.
Production of cheese is a technology, so...
Are you seriously trying to argue that social media is not technology?
No, they are arguing that everything is technically technology. So we should turn this community into a basket weaving forum.
But what is the "everything" being discussed? A Tech CEO's decisions and changes over a social media platform, which is a widely used technology. Nevermind the business aspects that exist everywhere, is it even reasonable to talk of social media, technology dedicated towards social connections, without addressing the social aspects involved?
I call the underwater basket weaving sub community
Electrons go zoomy through the internets
Tubes or something like that
Why don't we have articles about Burger King then? They have a website on the Internet that runs on technology.
