Twitter is tech-via-Silicon-Valley.

There are vast swathes of “tech” startups that are simply social media websites.

Your pedantry is borne of a frustration that I happen to share but it is also making you seem ignorant.

No it's more that I was hoping this community would be about technology itself. New things coming out etc. but most of the time i just see news about the business that surrounds tech where the story has nothing to do with the tech itself but instead just the management of said tech companies. I don't care that it's social media adjacent or to do with the silicon valley area or whatever. If this article talked about how a social media made in the silicon valley works underneath (and not just the running of it and the drama surrounding it) I'd be fine with it. Heck, it could even be about musk for all i care as long as it was actually about tech.
