I think we should have a technology subforum, to talk mobile phones, smart watches, tech trends, tech industry..etc.

Articles and happenings is too politically oriented for what should be a chill discussion, cryptocurrency and gaming are both tech-based, but are too specialized for the examples I listed.

Would that be a good idea?
 
I think that would be a great idea, but maybe not limited to technology - Maybe include the sciences as well. And mathema-
Just STEM, basically. It's likely that there are users who would appreciate this.

I wonder how many others might be in support of this.

I think a science/tech subforum would be cool. However I think it might spread the subforums too thin.

It may be better to consolidate it so that its technology/cryptocurrency (with tags to differentiate)

I also think a subforum related to politics might be interesting
 
The problem with a "tech" board is you're trying to throw science, space, robotics etc in the same board as consumer tech like smartphones. 4chan's /g/ shows pretty clearly that devolves immediately into fanboy shitflinging, talking about keyboard and watches, and little actual tech discussion.

That's because 4chan doesn't have usernames.
Also consumer tech is still "tech".

Then threads for specific topics within each of those fields, I feel that if we were to separate it too many times that we'd be spreading any possible interest on each of the subjects too thinly for any of them to be active.
 
Nah It would just be Null and OwO calling everyone else faggots for not using Chromium.
 
I feel like the cryptocurrency subforum should be kept as its own thing. It's very nuanced.

I think it's best to try to avoid adding new subforums if possible and just expanding the purpose of existing ones that have an audience that would already be interested in the addition.

Games should include 'geeky' technology, like building your PC or talking about retro hardware or upcoming graphics cards and shit.

As for talking about scientific discoveries and such? To me that feels like something Deep Thoughts should cover, maybe it could help get that subforum taken a bit more seriously. Plus with how often science delves into politics these days, it seems appropriate.
