- Thanks @ddc-sdu.bsky.social for joining!
- How can platform researchers make use of the #DSA40 (EU Digital Services Act)? The @ddc-sdu.bsky.social is on the road today, visiting the with the University of Copenhagen to learn more from @dscheykopp.bsky.social, here from Berlin's @weizenbauminstitut.bsky.social.

- 🚨 Upcoming: "Brave New Data Access World: What the Digital Services Act (DSA) Means for Researcher Access to Digital Platforms" 👤 @dscheykopp.bsky.social (Weizenbaum Institute Berlin) 🗓️ Wed, December 3, 13:45-15:15 CET 📺 Register for the live stream: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...
- This is important for all platform researchers! Please read and sign the OPEN LETTER to the EU Commission and share widely in your networks!
- We've published an Open Letter urging EU policymakers to reject the Digital Omnibus' proposed Amendment to Article 12(5) GDPR, which would undermine citizens' data access rights & the researchers who depend on them for #DataDonation research. Read & sign: shorturl.at/e1mr4 - your signature matters.
- Reposted by Jakob Ohme🗞️ At the Weizenbaum Institute today: workshop “What is News? Platforms, Audiences & Algorithms.” With colleagues from the @reutersinstitute.bsky.social, we’re exploring how societies get informed in the digital age. Plus a hybrid lunch talk on how changing ideas of “news” may reshape journalism.
- On last day of #aoir2025 @lionw.bsky.social presents our @weizenbauminstitut.bsky.social work on TikTok data donation from the 2025 German Federal Election - only 5% of content was political and the Left party could capitalize most in reaching voters of other parties with their content on TT.
- This was a great roundtable, lots of important questions from the audience, giving the impression that data donations will be around for longer, if we get it right (based on comments from the audience on postcards) #aoir2025
- We had a fabulous roundtable discussion with @anjabechmann.bsky.social @dscheykopp.bsky.social @tgrootkormelink.bsky.social @jiarut.bsky.social here at #aoir2025 that concluded with a thought exercise: "It's 2030 & data donation is the dominant data gathering paradigm, what must we get right today?"
- How often is too often in ESM research? 🚨New study out! We compared 6 beeps/day vs. 12 beeps in 2 h bursts. Both work, but burst designs show more fatigue + attrition — still useful if high temporal precision matters. App onboarding, though? Big bias alert. 📱 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
