Presented ongoing DPhil work from @oii.ox.ac.uk at @socialmediaandsociety.org at the @glasgow.ac.uk. I shared the first results from a Stochastic Actor-Oriented Model (SAOM) showing how network structure and dehumanising discourse on wartime social media (Telegram) reinforce one another over time.

Just wrapped up a great few days in Glasgow for #SMSociety. Really enjoyed learning about the latest research in this space and hearing from researchers across the globe who are pushing our knowledge of social media's impact on the world forward. Major thanks to the organisers, what an event!

What an incredible Social Media & Society #SMSociety 2026 conference! My highlights were: 1. Essi Holopainen talk about challenging the notion of 'passive' use of social media by young people and the many practices they do to support each other's mental health. ->

Last session of the day! We both attended Uses and Users, where we learned about far-right social media, climate data visualisation, personal data disclosure, and Twitch streamer toxicity! 📷 So much to learn, so little time! See everyone at the Poster Reception! #SMSociety #Takeover

Can you tell we like talking about content? Session #3 was all about Platformisation! Lots of conversation revolved around Indian beauty creators, platform visibility, journalism labour, and yep...memes. Can't talk about social media without memes. 😆 #SMSociety #Takeover

Demilee here! 👋 My second session was the online vs offline panel and it had all my favourite areas of research! We explored the manosphere, mothers in true crime, divine feminine content, and the divide of Swifties fans on Reddit. 🫡 Can’t wait to see what else today brings! 🧠 #SMSociety

Matt here! For session #2, the highlight for me was hearing about the datafication of apps and content creator views from a labour standpoint. Finally, learning about the imagination of the Web makes me question how I might visualise the internet today? Time for lunch! #SMSociety #SocialMedia
