I always see that Texhnolyze and these kinds of anime "requires attention from the viewer" or something like that. WTF does that mean? I watched it and tried to follow the plot and couldnt see the hidden brilliance behind this story

Kind of hard to explain, but I usually enjoy shows such as Texhnolyze, Serial Experiments Lain and Evangelion because of the atmosphere they create, everything feels bleak and mysterious and as people say “it requires the viewers attention”, I personally find it more interesting that way but not everyone is into this kind of stuff.
If you don’t like it then you shouldn’t bother with these shows, there aren’t that many anyway, it’s pretty niche

same exact opinion
These shows is kinda hidden gems
Not many people appreciate them or even understand them
It requires you to focus and follow precisely what's going on

Also in these kinds of shows after you finish it you should have an idea of what is the premise of the show if you don't then it's basically not for you so it's totally ok to drop it

I watched it back in the day and got the whole concept and it was very interesting that I ended up researching explanation videos on YouTube to further understand anything I missed

It's not for everyone that's for sure so don't push yourself to watch something you don't enjoy :)

I agree with what others have written. Not everyone has the same taste, so don't bother if you didn't get it. Texhnolyze isn't an anime for mere enjoyment, that's all I can say.

They mean that story goes beyond the narrative and full appreciation means active engagement with the material, not passively watching. The shows draws from numerous other works that need careful observation to discern. Simply put Texhnolyze isn't about what happens but what it means.

Think of it as going to a restaurant and having a raw meat dish, like steak tartare or something like that

Yes, this is the best answer.

Somehow they are more memorable to me, due to the message it has, and the sufocating world depicted.

It looks good aesthetically, it is interesting and unique. It is not deep as said to be, not even the creators thought highly of what it meant conceptually, so just enjoy it for what it is
