That is not Tech news that is business news.

What technology was developed, explored, integrated, improved, or otherwise innovated or more broadly applied by this?

Nothing, it does nothing, it’s a branding decision, business news, not tech news.

Curious, those criteria you listed out are not present anywhere I can see in the community rules.

Perhaps you should petition the mods to change them if you feel so strongly about it.

I think we should or else create a new community to focus on those things so I can join that one.

Many instances have a tech community, I wonder if any of them are like that. !technology@beehaw.org !technology@lemmy.ml !tech@kbin.social !technews@radiation.party

This would be a welcome development, I feel like social media is something you use tech to do, but it’s very rarely an interesting conversation about the tech itself.

Like how a grocery store has food but you wouldn’t call it a restaurant.

The side car says this community is about technology news. I don’t think they should list everything it’s not, but maybe clarify if news about the tech industry are wanted or not.

This is an interesting standard to apply and I’m curious to see how many posts would actually fit that, especially posts which seem to be about tech. Arguably, 30-60% of the top posts right now don’t meet this.
