Maybe I'm just weird but I think the tech focus is better.

Like that's where all this started. Kevin Rose wanted a better version of Slashdot, a tech news aggregator, so he created Digg.

And Digg was about tech news for several years before going to a general format, at which point it became trash.

And then Digg's redesign killed the site and everyone flocked to a Digg clone called reddit, even though reddit was a clone of post-shittification Digg, not pre-shittification Digg.

Being tech-focussed really does help. I'd sooner deal with Well Actually neckbeards than the average Facebook user, even if I'm not just interested in tech news.
