I'm not doing it wrong. You are saying you need a tech board because there have been 166 thread. But the percentage is really small

I'm saying (and what many are saying) is that technology is such a popular topic on the OT that a dedicated board for such discussions is warranted.

There were 107 threads on the OT on the 17th. Let's assume this is average for a given day. 166 tech threads over the course of 17 days averages out to about 10 tech threads per day. Meaning, over 9% of threads every single day on the OT are tech releated.

This is a message board where people can create a post pertaining to almost anything - so when a single topic occupies almost 1 in every 10 threads every day, it's quite significant.

Additionally, as has been demonstrated, this percentage was significantly higher than the percentage of music threads on the OT on a given day (see the first link in the OP), yet music was granted its own board.

That arguement is weak
you should consider that there are a lot of things that are not posted about technology bc there is no board for it
