RE: https://mastodon.social/@Daojoan/115697200024123091
At first, I wanted to shout out loud: No, we don't all have #brainrot! No, this is a typical US-problem.
But read the article! @Daojoan provides a clever, incisive analysis of what is going wrong with #communication. The #goodNews: you can learn how to fight it. A great text for discussions in #journalism.
Perhaps I have some more optimism than she because I also work with cultural heritage and see the thirst for a real change.

Ich halte nicht so viel davon, Jugendliche per Altersgrenze den Zugang zu Social-Media zu verweigern. Das ist einfach nur die simpelste "Lösung", um sich selbst keine Gedanken machen zu müssen, wie ein sicheres Umfeld für Jugendliche geschaffen werden kann. Aber das wäre ja mit einem Aufwand verbunden, also verbieten wir es einfach und nehmen Jugendlichen eine für sie wichtige Kommunikationsform.

Ah! de #NOS heeft het ook gezien. Ga je naar de #VS dan staat je dit te wachten. #Gaza protestant of iets negatiefs over #Trump gezegd? Jammer dan; wordt je vastgezet of gelijk retour. En natuurlijk alles in beslag genomen, ook geld. They are thieves that is what they are… #socialmedia #usa

I still find it impressive that so many informed people rely on Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Instagram, and the rest as their main way to share ideas. Why not a blog or a simple website instead? Why not offer some way to contact you that doesn’t depend on these tools?
Is Big Tech’s communication infrastructure really the most effective option, or simply the default? And what about those who choose not to use mainstream social media at all? Should they be excluded from your business, your ideas, and your professional network?

#US Plans to Scrutinize Foreign #Tourists’ #SocialMedia History
Even visitors from countries like Britain and France, whose citizens don’t need visas, would have to share five years’ worth of social media.
#CBP said it plans to ask applicants for a long list of personal data including social media, email addresses from the last decade, and the names, birth dates, places of residence and birthplaces of parents, spouses, siblings and children.

Good Idea: Mindful Social Media Use
https://news.ki.se/using-social-media-may-impair-childrens-attention
A large study from Karolinska Institutet found that children who spend more time on social media are more likely to develop attention problems, while watching TV or playing video games did not show the same effect. The link between social media use and inattention was not explained by socioeconomic or genetic factors, and did not go the other way around. While the impact on individuals is small, the effect could be significant across the population, prompting calls for age limits and better platform design to support children's cognitive health.
