Bluesky is just methadone Twitter _ by Nick Hilton

from Medium DeepDive · host Alan Shore and Denise

Medium article titled "Bluesky is just methadone Twitter", is a media criticism piece by Nick Hilton. The author argues that while the emergence of Bluesky may seem like a promising alternative to Twitter for journalists, it merely replaces one problematic platform with another. He highlights the dangers of social media platforms becoming central to journalistic success, citing the addiction to short-form engagement, increased exposure to abuse, and the potential for these platforms to prioritise native content over external links, ultimately undermining the independent media. Hilton ultimately suggests that a complete reevaluation of media's reliance on social media is necessary, rather than simply switching from one platform to another.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/medium-deepdive--6355256/support.
