First it was: "Search is bad now, I'll just use Reddit to find answers.". Now Reddit is trying to kill itself while the search engines inject falsehood generators into their pipelines for weird reasons. Finding information is gonna get a lot harder.

@tante Can’t help thinking of a big opportunity for journalism. My willingness to pay for fact checked information is growing. @LupinoArts @tante I was thinking of crowdfunded journalism like Krautreporter or De/The Correspondent, but yes, the ties between corporations and the publishing industry are strong. @number137 @tante exactly my feeling: and to add to that, the web in general is broken. To find a recipe, a recommendation/test of a product, tutorials etc you go on websites that are full of auto playing videos, cookie banners, Ads that look like articles, weird article recommendations and super long intros that they can place more ads @tante für unsere (Haupt/Real-) Schüler ist Internet Recherche jetzt over. Sie lesen keine Artikel mehr, sondern kopieren nur das erste Ergebnis ihrer Suchanfrage mit Copy und Paste. Ist auch völlig unmöglich, da etwas einzuordnen, weil ihnen das Vorwissen fehlt. Ich stelle jetzt im Unterricht wieder auf Buchrecherche um oder drucke die relevanten Artikel auf Papier aus. 🤷♀️ @tante worldcat.org and multiple friendships with (borrowing) privileges is the answer. Let’s coin a new term: call it #polylibrarious ? |
@tante what's up with those falsehood generators?
