What tech actually gets talked about

Every article on this site draws on a YouTube video by someone else. That means we can count something nobody else can: across 469 articles drawn from 320 different channels, which companies, models and protocols keep coming up. Here is the count, the method behind it, and what it cannot tell you.

How this is counted

  • The unit is the article, not the mention. A name that appears ten times in one article counts once. Otherwise the number just rewards wordiness.
  • Counted: the headline, the summary, the body text and the FAQ of each article.
  • Not counted: link text pointing to our own articles (that text is another article's headline), code blocks, tags and channel names.
  • The names are a fixed list, with spellings grouped together (NVIDIA and Nvidia are one entry). No automatic name detection — that could not be explained honestly in a box like this one.
  • Recounted on every build, so it moves as the archive grows. Figures below are from October 30, 2026.

What this does not tell you. These are names appearing in our articles, not in the videos they draw on, and not across the industry. Which videos get covered here is decided by our own topic rotation, which deliberately favours some subjects over others. So read this as a map of what this site has covered — not as a measure of what the tech world is discussing.

Movement. The green and red figures show the change since September 2026. One reading is stored per month, and a stored reading is never rewritten — so the comparison is against what was actually true then, not a recalculation.

Compare it against the wider web

The counts above cover this archive only. To see whether a topic is rising or falling outside it, Google Trends is the quickest check — it measures relative search interest on a 0–100 scale, where 100 is that term's peak in the period you select. Each link opens in a new tab with a 12-month window already applied.
