....but that's what happens when you call a community "technology". Its a pretty damn broad category and these days, incredibly mainstream.

Communities like " technology" are going to be as mainstream as they were on Reddit. There is nothing you can do about it unless you convince the mods to spend 14 hours a day curating and removing posts from people with mainstream definitions.

If you want a more curated definition, or you have more niche interests, then you probably want to go to a different community. Heck, maybe start your own. Be the change you want to see.

It seems a bit silly to go to a community called "technology" and then complain that it represents what 90% of technology news sources are talking about.
