Can someone explain to me how this news is technology related? Can you stop posting unrelated stuff to this community?

Netflix and X are both Tech companies, so this is tech related content. Which follows Rule 2 of the community. Posting about 'Drake's new music video' for example will be "unrelated stuff to this community".

Literally the instruments Drake sings into and uses to record his music are technology. Everything except eating fruit off a tree is technology. If we're going to be this flexible about what counts as fodder for the community then let's just go ahead and allow all of it.

They are both tech companies.

It's a repost/crosspost bot and the admins/mods don't care to fix, disable, or ban it.

I haven't blocked it yet but I'm thinking I should.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

the bot is a mod itself, so yeah.

it's been posting low quality content for months now

The bot is grabbing it from somewhere. Idk where maybe reddit.
