⚠️ Hinweis an andere #Fediverse-Admins: Wir sehen gerade eine auffällige Welle automatisierter Fake-Anmeldungen.

Muster:
* Zufallsnamen wie `FadRuwir`, `IpybVoxem`, `FaquCorar`
* Wegwerf-Maildomains wie `qaoloty.com`, `2mail.co`, `onionmail.org`
* auffällig viele Tor-/Proxy-Verbindungen
* 0 Beiträge, 0 Follower
* generische Bewerbungstexte wie „Ich möchte Teil der deutschsprachigen Community werden …“

Besonders perfide: Teilweise werden offenbar echte Bios anderer Fediverse-/Bluesky-Nutzer.innen kopiert. So wirkt die Anmeldung auf den ersten Blick erstaunlich glaubwürdig.

Ein einzelnes Merkmal beweist natürlich nichts. In dieser Kombination sieht es aber sehr nach automatisierter Account-Erstellung aus.

Schaut euch neue Registrierungen derzeit besser etwas genauer an und tauscht Beobachtungen gern unter den Instanzen aus.

Was ein tolles Wochenende im wunderschoenen #Bamberg 😍

Moin #Fediverse und euch einen gesunden Start in die neue Woche. Alles wird gut!

Alt...

Blick über die Regnitz in Bamberg (Klein Venedig / Altes Rathaus) Vordergrund & Gewässer: Die Regnitz fließt ruhig durch das Bild, links eingerahmt von historischen Fachwerkbauten der Fischersiedlung Klein Venedig, rechts von dichtem, grünem Baumbestand am Ufer. Mittelgrund: Eine Fußgängerbrücke (Kettenbrücke/Geierswörth-Steg) mit unzähligen Liebesschlössern am Geländer überspannt den Flusslauf. Dahinter erstrecken sich historische Bürgerhäuser und Verwaltungsgebäude. Hintergrund: Zentral im Bild ragt der markante barocke Turm des Alten Rathauses über die Dächer der Altstadt in den leicht bewölkten Himmel.

"Social media algorithms amplify right-wing content against young users’ preference"

https://www.bi.team/press-releases/social-media-algorithms-amplify-right-wing-content-against-young-users-preference-study-finds/

I finally re-found this study I read a few months ago, that deserves a lot more attention. It is, in fact, the main reason we should be moving away from big-tech social media: it shows more right-wing content than left-wing content, no matter the political leaning of the user.

Propaganda works. See more of something and you start believing it. And they know it.
