Del 1: Sociale medier 

Her find­er du his­to­ri­er om eller fra de store sociale plat­forme, der har en enorm rolle at spille i kon­tak­ten mellem udgiver/afsender og mod­tager.

😳 Nyt tilsyn skal holde øje med 400 platforme

Fra Medi­aWatch:

Omkring 400 danske dig­i­tale formidlingst­jen­ester vil fra på lørdag være under tilsyn fra DSA-tilsynet i Konkur­rence- og For­bruger­styrelsen. Det opl­yser styrelsen i en pressemed­delelse. 

🗳 TikTok opretter valgcentre i forbindelse med EU-valg

Fra Medi­aWatch:

Til juni er der Europa-Par­la­mentsvalg, og i den forbindelse har den dig­i­tale video­plat­form Tik­tok i samar­be­jde med val­gkom­mis­sion­er og organ­i­sa­tion­er i de enkelte medlem­s­lande plan­er om at lancere ”lokale val­gcen­tre” i Tik­tok-appen.

✅ Meta lancerer Verified-filtre i kommentarer

Fra Social Media Today:

After exper­i­ment­ing with it over the past few months, Meta’s now rolling out its new Meta Ver­i­fied com­ment fil­ter on Insta­gram, pro­vid­ing anoth­er way to pri­or­i­tize engage­ment from celebri­ties and peo­ple who’ve paid for ver­i­fi­ca­tion in the app.

💬 ...og "Folk du følger"-filter i dine beskeder

Fra Social Media Today:

Insta­gram has added a new DM fil­ter option for cre­ators, which will enable you to fil­ter your inbox to only mes­sages from pro­files that you fol­low in the app.

🤳 Instagram tester karruseller i Reels

Fra Social Media Today:

Giv­en the fact that both Insta­gram and Tik­Tok essen­tial­ly repli­cate each oth­er as a mat­ter of course, the former’s lat­est devel­op­ment will prob­a­bly come as no sur­prise.

🎵 Nu kan du integrere musik i dine YouTube-shorts

Fra TechCrunch:

YouTube is intro­duc­ing the abil­i­ty for users to incor­po­rate or “remix” a music video in their short-form videos, called Shorts, as the com­pa­ny con­tin­ues to chal­lenge Tik­Tok. Giv­en that YouTube has some­thing that Tik­Tok doesn’t, which is a vast library of offi­cial music videos, it makes sense for the plat­form to lever­age it to advance its short-form video ambi­tions.

🤑 Meta gør det 30% dyrere at booste i iOS-apps

Fra The Verge:

Meta said Thurs­day that it will start charg­ing a 30 per­cent fee when adver­tis­ers pay to boost the vis­i­bil­i­ty of their posts in Facebook’s and Instagram’s iOS apps.

The change, which goes into effect lat­er this month, stems from a 2022 App Store update where Apple extend­ed its typ­i­cal 30 per­cent cut of dig­i­tal pur­chas­es to boost­ed posts, which are essen­tial­ly ads.

😬 Influencere glemmer at markere annoncer

Fra Reuters:

Four out of five influ­encers on social media fail to dis­close com­mer­cial con­tent they post is adver­tis­ing as required under EU law, a Euro­pean Union study released on Wednes­day showed.

#️⃣ Threads får "trending topics" — med politik

Fra TechCrunch:

After acknowl­edg­ing last week that Meta’s X com­peti­tor Threads would not active­ly rec­om­mend polit­i­cal con­tent, the com­pa­ny today announced a test of a new trends fea­ture, “top­ics,” where such con­tent could poten­tial­ly sur­face any­way. Meta CEO Mark Zucker­berg announced on Mon­day that Threads would begin a small test of the fea­ture, ini­tial­ly in the U.S., to help users find “time­ly top­ics” that oth­ers are dis­cussing on the social net­work.

🔮 Mastodon vs. Bluesky kan forme fremtidens sociale medier

Fra TechCrunch:

Peo­ple on Bluesky and Mastodon are fight­ing over how to bridge the two decen­tral­ized social net­works, and whether there should even be a bridge at all. Behind the snarky GitHub com­ments, these cod­ing con­flicts aren’t friv­o­lous — in fact, they could shape the future of the inter­net.

😱 Bliver 2024 et mareridtsår med bots?

Fra Sci­en­tif­ic Amer­i­can:

The use of bots, or auto­mat­ed social media accounts, has made it much eas­i­er to spread delib­er­ate­ly incor­rect dis­in­for­ma­tion, as well as inac­cu­rate rumors or oth­er kinds of mis­in­for­ma­tion. But the bots that afflict­ed past vot­ing sea­sons often churned out poor­ly con­struct­ed, gram­mat­i­cal­ly incor­rect sen­tences. Now as large lan­guage mod­els (arti­fi­cial intel­li­gence sys­tems that cre­ate text) become ever more acces­si­ble to more peo­ple, some researchers fear that auto­mat­ed social media accounts will soon get a lot more con­vinc­ing.

🤷‍♂️ Er Reddit nu der, vi skal finde nyheder?

Fra Colum­bia Jour­nal­ism Review:

Twit­ter had been our place. Where jour­nal­ists gath­ered and pored over news in as near to real time as pos­si­ble.  [...]

Over the same decade or so Meta—the com­pa­ny that used to be known as Facebook—first dimin­ished its inter­est in news, then devel­oped some­thing close to active hos­til­i­ty to it. [...]

So where do we, for want of a bet­ter word, go? I spent weeks ask­ing where, if any­where, news is dis­cussed and shared in sober terms online. [...]

The most sur­pris­ing answer I found—given that it was once con­sid­ered the vil­lain of the piece—was Red­dit.

📰 NYTimes' vigtigste forsider er nu en podcast og et nyhedsbrev

Fra Van­i­ty Fair:

New York Times reporters have long dreamed of see­ing their sto­ries on A1 of the print edi­tion, prefer­ably above the fold, and, more recent­ly, atop the web­site. Sure, these goals still exist, but there are now two more cov­et­ed “front pages” of the Times, as top exec­u­tives will tell you: the flag­ship pod­cast, The Dai­ly, and the flag­ship newslet­ter, “The Morn­ing.” “That’s how you get seen,” said one reporter. “It’s not a nec­es­sary evil, so much as some­thing you have to care about now.”

Apple says that this change, required by the Dig­i­tal Mar­kets Act, is why it has been forced to remove Home Screen web apps sup­port in the Euro­pean Union.

The project was sup­port­ed by a Jour­nal­ism­fund Europe grant.
