If lemmy had user-defined filters, I’d use them. Right now I’m downvoting the stuff, but there’s already a community for musk-related stuff: !EnoughMuskSpam@kbin.social

The nuanced soft ban you’re talking about is just the topic of the community.
When musk does something tech related that’s tech. When he does something that’s not tech related that’s off topic.
Twitter is a social media website it’s not tech.

Honestly I think it’s weird that people think social media is tech.

The product itself (the code) may be considered tech but the company’s/employee’s/executive’s business/personal/anything outside of the product dealings shouldn’t be. If running a website makes any information related to you tech related then literally every company is a tech company. Meta’s stock price dropping because Zuckerbot farted in a kindergarten classroom isn’t anything tech related. Subscription fees being added or increased isn’t tech related.
How would you define tech with regards to social media and how does that definition not include any other company running a website that you can interact with?

I said the code is the tech and then gave examples of what isn’t tech. What else do you want? The dictionary definition is
which points even further away from social media being tech IMO.

News about a tech company is usually just business news and not news about tech though. Just like most Twitter news that gets posted on here.

Anything about the daily runnings of a company, it’s personnel and other business decisions is not news about tech, no matter what the company is. Tech news should be about the technology. New breakthroughs, new coding language releases, new hardware etc.
Edit: and to be a tech company is a company that creates tech, not always just one that uses it. I could be on the side of social media companies being tech companies, but that doesn’t mean all news about said companies are tech news, because they are not.
