A weekly newsletter about all things social media by Nuelink

Welcome back to the Nuesletter! Here’s your weekly social media scoop:

🐦 X Battles Community Notes Manipulation: X (formerly Twitter) discovered coordinated groups gaming its Community Notes by upvoting/downvoting to sway public views. X is now improving detection tools to keep the system fair and fight misinformation.

🔵 Bluesky Launches Verified Blue Check Program: Bluesky introduced a new verification system for “notable and authentic” users. Folks can apply online if they’re active, real, and recognized professionally or publicly. Plus, organizations can become “Trusted Verifiers” to authenticate affiliated accounts.

🛡️ Meta Gets Green Light for EU AI Training: The Irish Data Protection Commission approved Meta’s plan to train AI on public content from EU adults starting May 27, 2025. Meta added privacy safeguards like longer opt-out periods and clearer notices. Still, privacy advocates worry the opt-out method may break GDPR rules.

📩 Instagram Upgrades DMs with Voice Transcripts: Instagram just made DMs easier with automatic transcriptions for voice messages. Plus, voice message limits jumped from 1 to 5 minutes, letting users share longer audio updates.

🛍️ TikTok’s New AI Seller Assistant: TikTok rolled out an AI chatbot in Seller Center to help merchants optimize listings with smart tips on descriptions, categories, and promos. It’s designed to streamline selling and push TikTok’s e-commerce growth forward.

🔎 Google Search Gets Smarter with AI Mode: Now live in the U.S., Google’s AI Mode uses Gemini 2.5 to turn Search into a chatty assistant, handling complex questions, deep research, and better shopping comparisons. Upcoming features include AI checkouts that track prices and buy at the best time. Google also announced that the app is closing in on ChatGPT with 400 million active users monthly. Meanwhile, AI Overviews reach 1.5 billion users monthly, showing Google’s AI expansion is full steam ahead.

Our Two Cents on Social Media Marketing 🧙‍♂️

• Start strong with text overlays, a surprising visual, or an intriguing question. You’ve got just seconds to stop the scroll.

• Shoot and edit in 9:16 format (vertical) to fit TikTok, Reels, and Shorts perfectly. Center key visuals and text to avoid UI overlap.

• Use quick cuts, zooms, and text animations to maintain energy. Cut out pauses and filler, every second should add value or entertainment.

• As usual, use Nuelink to keep your social media marketing plan running without investing much time and resources with its automation and scheduling features.
