Research finds each social platform rewards different behaviour
Original: RE: https:// mastodon.social/@DigitalNaiv/1 17104483366040124 EN: A brief summary of the research: On X, you’re rewarded
New research summarised by commentator DigitalNaiv argues that social media platforms shape how people communicate: on X, users are rewarded for insults; on Bluesky, for emotional restraint; and on Mastodon, for nuance. The study suggests each platform fosters a distinct online personality, with all three still carrying a degree of toxicity.
Why now: Ongoing debate about how platform design and culture shape user behaviour and toxicity.
