Twitter’ın Hâli ve Yaklaşan Seçimler
Geçtiğimiz yılın sonlarına doğru Elon Musk’ın Twitter’ı satın almasıyla birlikte platformun mevcut sorunlarının giderek katlanacağını ve Musk’ın “dehasıyla” Twitter’ın giderek daha da kullanılamaz hâle geleceğini öngörmüştüm. Bu ihtimallere ve yaşananlara NewsLabTurkey’de yazdığım bültende birkaç kez yer verdim, ayrıca uzman olarak davet edildiğim farklı yayınlarda da bundan bahsettim. Bütün bahsettiklerim ve çok daha fazlası ile Twitter…
It’s People All the Way Down
Once again, we’re talking about moving from one major social media platform to other alternatives. This time, it’s because Elon Musk, one of the main villains of the comic book we live in, bought Twitter and everyone is pretty much sure that things will only get worse from here on. I agree with this observation and…
What Really Matters Online
Since the early days of July, I’ve been thinking so much about my online experience and the need for some radical changes. There was, and still are, multiple reasons behind this. But a surprising coincidence helped me to clear my head. On August 7th, I’ve published the 200th issue of the Turkish newsletter about media,…
Bright Futures Generator
Sometimes a small idea you came up with and then follow up just because you’re bored on an evening can turn into something really fun. Recently I had one of those, which ended up as Bright Futures Generator, and I’m kinda surprised how much positive reaction it received. It all started with me reading a…
How I’m Using Obsidian – The Setup
Intro If you know me online or offline, you’ll also know that I have an obsession with productivity and knowledge management stuff. This includes note taking apps, task management apps, different methods and everything related to that. This is partly because of my ADHD and needing a support system for myself but also because how…
Pens, Scissors, and The Systemic Discrimination by Design
One of the questions I think that isn’t asked enough is “who is missing?” If you’re not asking this question when you’re designing or building something, there’s a good chance your work will exclude some people —whether you want it or not. Of course this question works in many other places too, but I wanted…
A Weird Summer Zine
One of the things I’m obsessed with is the magazines and the bigger universe of mags, zines, and niche publications in general. I’m always trying to keep up with what kind of new and experimental things are happening and try to get them whenever possible. My interest goes back to my teen punk years because…
Adventures in Building a Library Catalog
Introduction Some time ago, I wrote about the problems with Goodreads and how StoryGraph can be a good alternative for many. This is something I’m really interested because most of what I do is about books and because of my ADHD brain, not being able to track the books I have causes quite unique problems…
DEHB Üzerine Sıkça Sorulmayan Sorular
Daha önce de yazdığım gibi, DEHB ile yaşamak veya bu konuda faydalanacak kaynak, konuşacak insan bulmak hiç de kolay bir iş değil. Zaten zor olan birçok şey, bu yalnız kalma hâli ve gizlenme zorunluluğu ile daha da çekilmez bir noktaya gelebiliyor. Bu yüzden Twitter’da ilk yazdıklarımdan bu yana aldığım olumlu tepkiler ve bu konudaki ihtiyacın…
