      “Tech bros” is a toxic and sexist term to describe toxic and sexist behavior. People who use it are as problematic as the people they want to describe.

      Idk what that other guy was on about but it’s people who super into computer tech and whatnot.

      Like all the people who nonstop talk about Linux or 3d printers or wiring your entire house into an Alexa or stuff like that.

      The only time I use it derogatively is when talking about tech companies that deliberately release poor quality products because they know tech bros will buy it anyway which helps drive inflation while ensuring lower quality
