Between Mammoths and Butterflies: Debate on the Future of Social Networks

Social networks are changing. Between the mammoth of Mastodon and the butterfly of Bluesky, digital cracks are forming that are more decentralized, free, and open. But what are the differences between these platforms? Is a digital future without misinformation and hate speech possible?

In this debate, we will explore how social networks are transforming and what alternatives are gaining strength. We will talk about the Fediverse, the Bluesky proposal, and the creation of a space where citizens can connect, build bonds, and empower themselves digitally.

With the participation of Marta Cambronero, journalist and researcher expert in social media behavior; Iñaki García, a leader of neighborhood activism and participant in El Lokal, Cultural Association of Raval; and Marcel Costa, biologist, researcher, and member of Anartist and co-responsible for its technical services. With their guidance, we will delve into the challenges and opportunities of this new digital ecosystem.
