Missed [@ben]( )'s keynote at this year's @fediforum? Here's the full transcript. "The opportunity right now isn't to build a better Twitter or to provide a nice place for people who care about Linux to chat: it's to build infrastructure that vulnerable people can actually use to organize, to communicate safely, and to build community. But we can only do that if we're building with those communities from day one, not building for them based on our assumptions about what they need." #OpenSocial #OpenSocialWeb #Community #CommmunityBuilding #FediForum #Fediverse #Media #ActivityPub #ATProto #Protocols #Technology #Tech
In May 2025, Google began to pay CA$100 million a year to media outlets in order to be exempt from Canada's Online News Act. Gretel Kahn of the University of Oxford's Reuters Institute spoke to representatives from The Logic, @npub1ccc2...32l5, IndigiNews and The Rover about how things are going, who gets the money, and where things stand with Meta, which decided to remove all news for Canadians rather than pay up. “If companies like Google and Facebook want to play that role in being a trusted information source and they want people to come to their platform, trust it and be doing good things with circulating information, I don’t think it’s a crazy idea that they should be expected to pitch in funding journalism,” said The Tyee's Jeanette Ageson. #Media #SocialMedia #Canada #News #Journalism #Meta #Google

"The days of us being able to walk on [to social media], tweet something, walk away, and get people to come to our website are over…" @npub1psar...j5uh's Jason Koebler told Nieman Lab's Hanaa' Tameez at the iMEdD International Journalism Forum last week. "We said, if we don’t aggressively move people from social media platforms that we don’t control to platforms that we do control, this business isn’t going to work and we aren’t going to have jobs anymore.” This led the team at 404 to ask readers for email addresses and put older stories behind paywalls, which totally transformed their business. Here's more from NiemanLab on what 404, The Economist and El País have learned about how to attract and retain readers in today's media environment. #Media #Journalism #SocialMedia #OpenSocial #Newsletters #MediaIndustry
