Hell yeah. Going back soon.

Honestly, this isn't just an open source maintainer or crypto exec problem.

This is a social engineering attack that can be used against literally anyone, from journalists to organizers of any stripe.

It's worth reading up on the details of what happened here if you use a computer and video calls

It's Trans Day of Visibility, so we've made our special series about being trans on the internet completely free to read for everyone, forever.

Here are a few stories from the collection:

Some great moderation features, really nice to see.

Two of the key texts for us when building Coral (now used in 28 countries!) were Justin Isaf's presentation (www.slideshare.net/slideshow/ju...) and this book: direct.mit.edu/books/monogr...

A lot of the same principles are being used here.

Go hang with the best product people in our industry!

Many Americans hold contradictory opinions on the same policies Our new poll finds question wording can swing opinion by 20+ points on immigration, the budget, and transgender rights. That's a problem for people who use polls to tell politicians what voters want.

New post!
Many Americans hold contradictory opinions on the same policies. Question wording effects can swing opinions by 20+ points on immigration, the budget, and transgender rights.
That's a problem for people who interpret polls for a living.

Hiring in an era of fake candidates, real scams and AI slop – The Markup AI-written applications, an impersonator and a recruiter scam followed just one remote job posting.

What happened when I tried to hire a remote engineer - me, for @themarkup.org themarkup.org/hello-world/...

This sounds incredible

Thank you! I miss you all too!

Thank you Andrea!

Thank you Johannes!

Thank you Kat!

Thank you Hannah!

A New Kind of Community Strategy at Fusion What it looks like to make community engagement part of your process - even when you're not working on a story.

He’s doing different work now in Kentucky but I’d be happy to put you in touch if you’re interested, send me an email!

Tagging #OJA25 into this thread

no idea why @simongalp.bsky.social wasn't successfully tagged here, I've been trying out Buffer for the first time so I'm probably doing it wrong

That’ll do for now. I’ll certainly remember ten others who should be added, and I might do that later. And if you’re not named here and feel you should be, you’re probably right, and that’s entirely my fault. Thank you everyone listed here and beyond for pushing journalism to be better.

A brief list of small publications that serve communities relentlessly in ways I admire (and often donate.) Their founders, and teams all deserve so much more: The 19th, Capital B, El Tímpano, Scalawag, Sahan Journal, Charlottesville Tomorrow, and every member of the Tiny News Collective.

Kat Duncan at RJI is a relentless champion of audience-centered work. She’s done this for so long, it’s easy to overlook how important her thinking and support has been for so many people across the industry.

Also previous winners, Candice Fortman and Sarah Alvarez made Outlier into a portal to a different dimension of journalism where it only serves people in the most direct ways, with information they desperately need. Countless citations later, our industry thinks differently now thanks to them.

@mitrakalita.bsky.social has won the Impact Award already, but she should probably get an honorary version every single year. With URL Media and Epicenter, she is strategic, creative, and gets results in ways that clearly improve so many lives.

The funders who understand the value of audience-driven work and use their power to build its infrastructure, including Molly de Aguiar, Alicia Bell, Teresa Gorman, Tracie Powell, Josh Stearns, Paul Waters, and innumerable Knight Foundation people including Shazna Nessa, Jim Brady, Marc Lavallee.

Every conversation with @terryparrisjr.bsky.social leaves me feeling smarter (and sometimes drunker.) He is relentless in his desire to prioritize the dignity of his communities, in ways that helps them mourn, feel heard, and/or be empowered with information and pathways towards change.

I’ve been a LION judge for the past few years, and if I see Santa Cruz Local in my list of nominees, I know I’m in for a treat. Kara Meyberg Guzman leads the way for small newsrooms in creativity, outreach, ethics, and pure service.

@maritzafelix.bsky.social started ConectaArizona as a WhatsApp group, and her community focus and creativity inspires and delights me every time. She was voted Community Member of the Year by LION’s members, surprising nobody who knows her or her work.

@yukarikane.bsky.social @profpasha.bsky.social y.social founded @prisonjournalism.bsky.social rnalism.bsky.social, training a national network of incarcerated writers to be journalists & advocates for criminal legal reform by empowering their voices while shifting the narrative. Transformative work.

With Spaceship Media (co founded by Jeremy Hay), Eve Pearlman demonstrates how journalists can convene and be in community with disparate voices in ways that create bonds of trust and authority. Is this what it feels like to live in Montclair and do the school run alongside a dozen NYT writers?

@mikerispoli.bsky.social at Free Press (not that one) has been a constant fighter for community ownership of the news, in ways that serve everyone’s needs. His gatherings are always inclusive and thoughtful, their work insistent that a better media world is possible.

Every @jesikahmariaross.bsky.social project contains so much care, heart, and community focus. Projects including Hidden Hunger, Care Collaboratory, After The Assault are truly participatory and develop community resilience. if every newsroom empowered a jesikah, ours would be a better world.
