The Detox Workshop at @icwsm.bsky.social has wrapped up. Thanks to our keynote @maxfalken.bsky.social , all our speakers, my co-organisers, and everyone who joined the event! 🫖 We don’t have all the solutions yet, but it’s clear that tackling platform harms requires new methods and data sources!

Other platforms, such as YouTube, have played a crucial role in the proliferation of their content. The paper was presented at the 14th ACM Web Science Conference 2022 and remains of great importance for understanding the communication strategies of these types of users.

Bluesky activities exploded after the X ban in Brazil. Interesting research is on the horizon 🤭

Bluesky reached more than 10M users. We studied how the platform has evolved from invitation-only to open to the public. See our article "The Dawn of Decentralized Social Media: An Exploration of Bluesky's Public Opening" has been presented at ASONAM 2024. imyday.github.io/pub/asonam20...
