The creator economy has given rise to the world's most diverse newsroom. And I think that far outweighs all the downsides of platforms. But we gotta boost each other and fight like hell to sustain, grow, and protect this.

Gilt auch für die Schweizer Regierung und vor allem unserer Bundespräsidentin Karin Keller-Sutter, die ihren persönlichen Account sogar erst dann eröffnete, nachdem X (Twitter damals) unter Musk die Factchecks abschaffte und die recht(sextrem)en Accounts wieder aufschaltete.

Sehr lesenswerter, sehr langer Faden zum Hintergrund von Charlie Kirk und der rechten online-Szene. Grauslich, und wichtig um die Logiken von online-Medien ansatzweise zu verstehen.

Diese Kirk-Meinungsartikel überall zeigen so ein stumpfes Bild von Politik. Fokus nur auf Form, null auf Inhalt. Hauptsache man debattiert, dann ist das demokratisch und gut. Was die Inhalte sind, ist egal. Menschenverachtung scheint für diese Autor:innen ok, solange sie anständig vorgetragen wird

Watson mit sehr treffende Kommentar dazu, wie die Unfähigkeit der SVP, ihre Fehleinschätzung von Trump zuzugeben, die Probleme der Schweiz noch vergrössert. Ich hätte ergänzt, dass das Feindbild EU so gross geworden ist, dass für die SVP alles andere besser ist, sogar ein Wirtschaftsrückgang.

Anders gesehen: Es sind gute Zeiten für D.I.Y., Garagen- & Wohnzimmerkonzerte, Selbstorganisation und den Aufbau echter Szenen statt simulierter "Communitys", die mit Event-Spektakeln, bei denen die "Stars" so weit vom Publikum weg sind wie die Ticketpreise von Lebensrealitäten, abgespeist werden.

What horrendous news to wake up to. The Late Show has been cancelled by the network. The whole show and format, not just the host. Shari Redstone’s legacy is that she was the easiest to sue into total submission by Trump. Coward.

AI Music is theft… …but it’s the logical consequence of a system treating music as a mere consumer product. The web is ablaze with the latest AI-generated band, The Velvet Sundown, ranking up hundreds of thousands of listeners and streams in a way that seems fishy itself.

Yep. I saved hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month just from switching from Substack to self-hosted Ghost. I pay a roughly flat $85/month now (~$75 for mailsending, $10 for hosting), vs. 10% of all my subscription income.
