Fragwürdige Methoden von "Dating Coaches" in sozialen Netzwerken

Viele junge Männer wünschen sich eine Beziehung. In kurzen Videos auf TikTok und Instagram geben "Dating Coaches" vor, dabei zu helfen. Die Methoden sind fragwürdig bis gefährlich. Von Sebastian Vesper.

Hey everyone! I recently posted about my latest project, a universal fediverse sharing button: https://stefanbohacek.com/project/fediverse-sharing-button/

Is this something that you'd find useful for your website or blog?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for sharing and trying this out! I fixed an issue on iOS some of you might have run into, just FYI.

Meta's Workplace shuts down in 2026.

I guess making money somewhat honestly by having customers that actually pay for a service with at least some guarantees of privacy and safety is not as lucrative as having an open platform network where people are tricked into giving out all their data while they are spied upon for whatever reasons.

What is a fediverse-neutral word for "subtweet"? People here use "subtoot", but that's based on Mastodon's "toot", which is no longer officially used.

"Subpost" doesn't sound quite right. But I guess that's it?

Na gut, dies ist nun in Schweden aber wann wird es hier mal aufgeklärt, dass es auch in jeglichem Land Trollfabriken von den Rechten geben kann (oder gibt)?

»Politisches Erdbeben in Schweden wegen Skandal um Trollfabrik:
Enthüllungen über eine von den Schwedendemokraten betriebene Trollfabrik haben ein politisches Erdbeben ausgelöst.«

: "In a first-of-its-kind move within the European Union, the French government has moved to block TikTok in one of its overseas territories amid widespread protests.

A French draft law, passed Monday, would let citizens vote in local elections after 10 years' residency in New Caledonia, prompting opposition from independence activists worried it will dilute the representation of indigenous people. The violent demonstrations that have ensued in the South Pacific island of 270,000 have killed at least five people and injured hundreds.

In response to the protests, the government suspended the popular video-sharing app — owned by Beijing-based ByteDance and favored by young people — as part of state-of-emergency measures alongside the deployment of troops and an initial 12-day curfew.

French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal didn’t detail the reasons for shutting down the platform. The local telecom regulator began blocking the app earlier on Wednesday."

It finally happened: Twitter changed the domain to x.com. Twitter.com is no more.

Today I learned the equivalent of the phrase 'Food Porn' is '飯テロ' or 'Meshi Tero', where the 'tero' part is a borrow word for 'terrorism'.

The literal translation is 'Food Terrorism'. Consider that in relation to the Japanese penchant for filling their streams with pictures of every single thing they eat.

Wohl nicht nur , sondern eher lang erwiesene - nicht umsonst reden wir schon seit Jahren über durch , ist da definitiv keine Ausnahme:

Twitter” as a website is now finally, entirely dead!! We'll it for sure.

The billionaire announced that the site had finally moved its systems to X.com, marking the end of the site’s rebrand to X.

Interesting approach. But it's commercial, not decentralized, and is backed by Sam Altman and more Big Tech honchos, so my first reaction is skepticism.

"I quit all social media about three years ago because of the hostility, disinformation, brain rot, and advertising."

"They say they haven’t settled on a business model yet, but it could involve ads based on people’s declared interests."

Hm. Good luck!

A review of footage, posts, and interviews found that some of the most dramatic attacks caught on camera that night were committed by people outside – not the students and faculty who were eventually arrested.

I posted this on Facebook 🧵:

From what I gather, today Facebook unilaterally flagged heaps of Humanitix links and events as spam and deleted them.

That's people's livelihoods on the line.

But it's the price we pay for collectively trusting one centralised company with our entire social lives online. Especially one that gives its decisions over to algorithms rather than humans.

Someone on FB unfriended me and they wanted me to know why. Ummm. So I said ok... think they wanted an apology for a comment I made on one of their posts instead of an ok 🤷🏻‍♀️ I do not want to be dragged into their drama. Is even more confusing for people 😳

Being watched "could limit your desire to take risks or exercise free speech. Over the long term these 'chilling effects' could 'cool down' society."

I will take reporting on anything at all numeric by , , and the seriously when each post or article clearly states if an "average" or a "median" was used, and if it is average, what the skew and kurtosis are

folks, that last bit about [ and is a lame inside joke ]
