There are no "tech companies", there a companies that deal with new and interesting technologies more than others, but that doesn't mean that anything that company does is "tech news".
Obviously the answer to "what is technology and what belongs in /c/technology" is subjective, everyone will have their own definition. But if your definition includes anything that social media companies do then you may as well just include any company with a website in your definition of technology.
If meta rolls out threads, that's tech news because it's a company experimenting with a new technology. If xitter wants to change it's subscription pricing that's not tech news, because it has very little to do with technology.
