There is a Simple English version of the new tech news issue. But the English version is delivered in Simple English Wikipedia and Simple English Wiktionary. Would you mind considering this issue?
Hi AlexisJazz. As I commented in the talkpage thread which you've linked, "we try to write the default content within Tech News to be as clear as possible, so that all the languages which do not have custom-translations can benefit from the clearest possible explanations of each entry. We also need to keep in mind that the target-audience for the newsletter are the technical editors on any given wiki, so a certain amount of technical jargon is expected. Therefor, hopefully there isn't a need for a separate Simple English translation of this newsletter." -- I.e. I didn't include the separate translation when I delivered this issue. Therefor there was no bug here. I will resolve this task. Thanks!
@Quiddity so you can include/exclude translations from MassMessages? Is there a video or bunch of screenshots to show what sending a MassMessage goes like? (I found only 6 screenshots on Commons, most of them similar to each other)
Yup. The general process is explained at

TechNews has an extra-complicated setup, for a variety of reasons. The way TechNews handles it is detailed in step 2 at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/Manual#Distribution
