Soziale Netzwerke die Zweite

How social networks got competitive again – Facebook’s surprising new challengers in audio, video, photos, and text. … While still available only by invitation, Clubhouse recently hit an estimated 10 million downloads. … Facebook’s biggest competitor in 2021 is, of course, TikTok, which has been siphoning usage from Facebook’s family of apps since it launched in the United States in 2018 (after merging with Musical.ly). … Dispo is an invite-only social photo app with a twist: you can’t see any photos you take with the app until 24 hours after you take them. … The rise of Substack over the past year has begun to mint a growing number of millionaire, text-based creators, while also pulling millions of people away from their social feeds into the relative calm of the email inbox.“

Dispo Is An Invite-Only App Like Clubhouse, But For Photos – Like Clubhouse, Dispo is an invite-only smartphone app that’s currently only available on iPhone, but that’s where the similarities end. … Dispo’s emphasis is on images. However, this is not just another Instagram clone, as Dispo comes with a unique selling point in the form of a digital-age take on instant cameras. Once the app is downloaded, the user takes a photo using the phone’s camera, but they then have to wait for it to be ‘developed’ which can take up to 24 hours. Essentially, users take a photo now with the understanding it won’t be ‘ready to collect’ until 9 a.m. the next morning. At which point it is published in the user’s feed and visible to others.“

Australien: Gesetz ohne Biss

Australia passes law forcing Google and Facebook to pay news publications – After a tumultous month that saw Facebook pull news from its platform in protest, Australia’s government agrees to make the News Media Bargaining Code law. … Under the media code, Facebook and Google will have 90 days to reach compensation agreements with news publishers. If they fail to do so, an arbitrator will issue a binding decision. Last-minute amendments to the law, however, mean both Facebook and Google can escape being subject to its provisions. Facebook also retains the ability to pull news from its Australian platform – again – if it deems terms unfavorable.“
