Start the social network based on Mastodon Matx.eus to talk about Basque sport
- Matx, the local sport social network, was launched yesterday. After being born at the beginning of the year as a mobile app, Mastodon now appears rebuilt over the infraestructura.La website is now, above all, shown as a sports news repository of the local media network of Tokikom, as we thought, but with the creation of the account, anyone can participate (standards are proposed; the most basic, speaking mainly in Basque). Anyone who registers before December 8th Matx.eus will enter the drawing of a lot of gifts.
The highest has included in this article the details of Matx. "Lost or won, we'll show the fun side of sport, we'll animate challenges between teams, we'll create challenges, we'll come together. And for that we will be in sports events, races...", says Aratz Losada, responsible for the contents of Matx. "And at the same time, we want to have direct contact with the clubs in our territory. We've been recording the challenges between teams for a long time, and the response we've received from clubs and athletes is being great."
Insofar as it is a social network, users themselves will be in the centre and will be able to share their videos, photos and other elements: "We want to sew the community of athletes, teams and sports enthusiasts," says María Balzategi, head of the project community. In addition to these two persons, the writing team includes journalists from the following media: Joni Ubeda (Aiurri), Paola Oscoz (Antxeta), Imanol García (Ataria), Asier Orbea (Barren), Xabier Urzelai (Goiena), Eider Moncayola (GITB)
The draft rules are set out here.
To view the content you need to register, otherwise each message chain or post stays private. We do not know that an account Matx.eus can be followed from another place in the Basque fedibertso, at least in some of the tests we have not succeeded.
If you sign up for Matx.eus and do so before December 8, you will enter the draw with the option to win one of these:
- a Euskaltel Euskadi jersey,
- Two tickets for a Eusko Label Winter Series match
- Purchase bonus of 300 euros in Forum Sport.
I've done a quick analysis of the technology forecasts for 2025. Like every year, when you talk about what technology is going to bring to the media in 2025, the discourse is very similar. Many of us who write about technology have the anxiety of knowing more than it's going to... [+]
The evolution that the Internet has taken over the last 15 years, together with its technological and business model, makes us think that it is a tool to increase the worst aspects of humanity. Around the world, agents have been created that are not satisfied with this idea... [+]
In spaces like the X, today, we will have to recognize that it is impossible to have a public debate and a cultural struggle. In this sense, a mistake is that political projects that intend to lead a leftist change leave platforms like X to make the leap to social networks that... [+]
