Ach Mist, das war's dann wohl mit meinen Statistiken zu #Mastodon als Trafficquelle für @heiseonline:
Hab gerade bemerkt, dass die schönen neuen Vorschaukarten den URL-Parameter abschneiden, über den wir überhaupt erfahren, dass Besuche von hier kommen. Je mehr Instanzen diese neue Vorschau nun anzeigen, desto mehr Einstiege werden darüber kommen und für uns nicht mehr erkennbar.
Weiß nicht, ob wir das überhaupt beheben können/wollen.

(For those outside the US, the commentator David Brooks has made a career out of piously trolling liberals for their supposed decadence and lack of morals.)

But the term “meme” was coined by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins to describe a behavior, style or idea as a unit of culture that can spread or disappear. From social movements to religion to Grumpy Cat.
Even though most folks may not be aware of it, we’re sharing a popular concept from #science, every single day, across #socialmedia.
Syllabus for my 2015 Stanford Social Media Issues course:
I don’t own chickens. Or any birds for that matter. And even if I did, I probably wouldn’t dress them up as adorable feathered crossing guards.
But sometimes the algorithms for targeted ads on #SocialMedia are so very wrong, they’re simply delightful.
Still, I’m very happy they’re not part of #Mastodon.
There's a lot of great explanation sites about the fediverse and its various communities, and I wanted to take a stab at this myself.

(new blogpost) A time will shortly be upon us when we must decide, make a choice about how we might want our interweb to look and be in the near future and beyond. I think it boils down to a single catch-all choice: who owns the content and interactions of the Internet. ...

Thousands fled to Mastodon after Musk bought Twitter. Are they still ‘tooting’?
The decentralized social network has seen user numbers drop in recent months, but tech-savvy users remain passionateWilfred Chan (The Guardian)
There it is: Germany's second big public broadcaster is teasing, that it will start posting on #Mastodon tomorrow as @ZDF That account has 3200 follower, on #Twitter its 1,4 million.
I'm sure it will start to grow quickly and get a headstart on the other big public broadcaster #ARD, which has labeled its first account a test (@NDR).
Of course it would also be a headstart on the big public broadcasters, that are arguing with #Twitter.

While #NPR and #PBS have quit #Twitter (without mentioning #Mastodon however), Germany's biggest public broadcaster #ARD and #ZDF are not only already testing their own instances for quite a while (dev.ard.social/public/local & zdf.social/public/local): The first proper account is now live and posts news articles from northern Germany – @NDR
Let's see, if NPR and PBS find their way here. Oh and where is the #BBC?
Twitter’s ad revenue is down 89% and not many users are signing up to its paid subscription. In April, it’s removing “legacy” blue checks and further prioritizing paid accounts.
