Theory: ATProto is pointless and it just hit me why.
It's too complicated. Ok, so then your response will be "then we can educate and hold hands and explain and gain trust"
You do THAT and *boom* you ALREADY just solved the problem with humans that you were just trying to solve with complex tech.
At that point just point them to, or become, a good Mastodon server.

Liegt der Höhepunkt der sozialen Medien hinter uns? Das fragt @jburnmurdoch in der Financial Times. AI-generierte Videos fluten die Plattformen, viele sind nicht mehr selbst aktiv und vernetzen sich dort nicht mehr mit Freunden. Laut Umfrage verbringen gerade junge Leute unterdessen weniger Zeit auf #SocialMedia.
Have we passed peak social media?

BE YOURSELF

If you voted Republican because you fear socialism, then live your truth: Do not accept Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. Avoid public beaches, parks and libraries. Do not allow your children to attend tax-supported schools or to take advantage of food programs. Drive only on toll roads. Do not call 911 unless you intend to pay for services rendered.

Politische Kommunikation auf #SocialMedia darf nicht in peinliche Nachahmungsversuche abgleiten – wenn Politikerinnen und Politiker tanzen oder Memes posten, wirkt das oft bemüht, anbiedernd und unglaubwürdig – siehe aktuell das Sweet Caroline-Video von Herrn Söder. Ist das noch Volksnähe – oder schon peinliche Selbstinszenierung?

The image depicts a vintage public telephone booth situated on a sidewalk. The booth is painted in a bright yellow color with white trim and features a large blue sign with a white telephone icon and the word "TELEPHONE" written in blue letters. The booth has a glass front and two doors, with a small window visible on the side. A white picket fence surrounds the booth, and a grassy area is visible in front of it. In the background, there is a street with vehicles, including a blue and white sta…

Two annular pie charts.  On the left: policy issues discussed by Kamala Harris who spoke about Birth Control 49% of the time,  on the right Donald Trump who spoke about immigration 47% of the time,  these don't add up to 100% because they could have spoken about more than one thing in a video.

It would be ironic if the shooting of a right wing influencer lead right wing US gov to 'taking aim at Big Tech algorithms' (interesting choice of words CBC!) and embrace the Fediverse perhaps!

Neue Studie, alter Befund: #SocialMedia ist nicht kaputt, sondern so gebaut. Algorithmen belohnen Empörung, Desinformation und Klicks – und genau das dominiert unsere Feeds. Reparatur scheint illusorisch. Vielleicht hilft nur ein nüchterner Blick: Plattformen machen, was sie sollen – nur nicht das, was wir erhoffen. Polarisierung ist kein Bug, sondern Geschäftsmodell.

This week's Mindscape podcast is with Petter Törnberg who has been running agent based simulated social networks to try and figure out why they're so divisive and polarizing.
His models do apparently capture these features of the networks which promote the most popular posts to everyone.
Sad to learn that simply using chronological feeds apparently not only doesn't help he reckons it makes things worse!
Maybe his agent's just aren't smart enough to follow the right people, but then probably nor are mere humans.

Soll Social Media für unter 16-Jährige verboten werden? 🤔 #SocialMediaVerbot - Einfach klingt’s – aber die Wahrheit ist komplex. Plattformen verdienen an Aufmerksamkeit, Algorithmen pushen Wut & Empörung, und wir alle stecken mittendrin. 🚨Ein Verbot allein reicht nicht. Wir brauchen Bildung, Aufklärung und neue digitale Räume, die sicher und fair sind. 💡🌍

Rechte Inhalte werden auf #SocialMedia überdurchschnittlich häufig verbreitet. Nicht weil sie breiter geteilt würden, sondern weil ihre Zuspitzung perfekt in die heutige Erregungsökonomie passt. Gegenpole gibt es zwar, doch ihre Reichweite bleibt im Vergleich begrenzt, ihre Wirkung konzentriert sich auf informierte Nischen.
