Digital service @artfund (previously @samaritans). I don't use this any more - for work, LinkedIn, for anything else, Instagram

@AdamKoszary yeah, that feels right. i thought it did a decent job of half-explaining whatever the fediverse was, but in a way that i could ignore because it is fundamentally uninteresting. good point on the desktop version. i feel like insta was slow out of the gate on that too
English
@mkeating121 Yeah and for social media managers a desktop option is essential. I guess museums are jumping on it because it has way more potential for audiences than Mastodon (too complicated) or Bluesky (still gated)? If it falls flat they can just sit on the handle like on Pinterest...

First thoughts on Threads
- sign-up incredibly easy, ported over my privacy settings
and friends from Instagram. I can keep my IG private and Threads public.
- UI is minimalist (good) but also no DMs (bad) and can't add alt text (bad)
- shit ton more museums than competitors
English
@AdamKoszary It feels like a good first draft - there's a bunch of stuff missing that you'd...think? will be on its way, but I guess a lot of it depends on if people still even open it tomorrow. Surprised to see some museums jump on it so quickly
English
Also my feed is absolutely stuffed with suggested posts from people I don't follow (and there's no For You/Following tab system). I can see this becoming as annoying as it is on Instagram unless they give us an opt-out.

Laughing at this made me cringe so hard for the person I once was

We're going through a period of change at Tearfund and looking to grow our Digital and Content Team. We're hiring some exciting new roles with an increased focus on understanding current and new audiences and creating experiences that engage and inspire them. Jobs in thread 🧵

@simonfairway @KathrynExcell @googleanalytics Killing off Optimize too feels not great even if they will/can fold it into GA4 eventually. But whoever renamed Data Studio to "Looker" - eesh
English
@KathrynExcell @mkeating121 Yep - segments not available via the API and therefore not available for Looker / Data Studio, Supermetrics etc feels like a real omission. Any time soon @googleanalytics?
English
I'm interested to hear what charity/digital pals think... GA4 - love it? Hate it? Meh?
English
@KathrynExcell We've been able to set up some decent stuff in Reports, which does actually work. I think the Explore bit feels like it promises a lot, but it's not really clear why some Dimensions and Metrics can't be mixed. What do you think?
English
@mkeating121 Sounds frustrating - is there anything in particular you find doesn't work as you'd expect? Will be something to look out for!

How might museums be supported in developing a digital strategy? asks Mike Keating @mkeating121 @artfund bit.ly/3iHXGzU

It was really fun to talk through this digital funding research with @GeorginaBrooke @ChrisUnitt @squirrels4. Can't believe it's the end of 2022 and I've just done my first webinar

Everyone is feeling very much seen in @mkeating121’s session on how to use data to improve your web content. “You’ve all adapted to the dark and oppressive place content creation is” (much like a deep sea crab 🦀) #DigiDay2022
