Rethinking Social Media – For a Sustainable Future

The European social network for sustainable change

Not every digital innovation has to come from Silicon Valley. Right now, Europe needs courageous platforms that don't outsource responsibility, but shape it.”
— Caroline Gager-Palfy
WIEN, AUSTRIA, May 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- While the digital world increasingly revolves around attention, data and paid reach, a new platform from Europe is taking a different approach: Orbyz, founded by Viennese entrepreneur Caroline Gager-Palfy, is focussing entirely on sustainability. It's not about vanity or followers, but about sharing, true stories, common goals and tools that create added value.

To mark its first birthday, Orbyz is launching its app for iOS and Android in the stores, making a clear statement: Europe can do digital innovation with attitude.

The social network is aimed at individuals, companies, organisations, research institutions, journalists and public institutions who want to work together on social and ecological solutions. Whether green technologies, biodiversity, mobility transition, circular economy, education, equality and social justice, slow fashion, fair supply chains or sustainable financial strategies, Orbyz already brings together topics and people from over 20 countries.

‘We no longer have time for clickbait. We need spaces where ideas grow, knowledge is shared and projects become visible across borders. That's exactly what Orbyz is,’ says Gager-Palfy.

The European answer to global challenges

Orbyz is technologically orientated towards the EU's Digital Services Act and sets new standards in terms of transparency, data protection and ad-free use. The platform completely dispenses with adverts. Instead, it is deliberately financed via subscription models with additional functions for professionals and companies. The basic version of Orbyz is free to use for everyone.

‘We didn't want another feed that directs us through algorithms, but a place for real dialogue, solutions and shared impact,’ says founder Caroline Gager-Palfy.

With the unique function of putting together your own personalised feed with the help of a navigator, the platform is taking a bold, innovative and pioneering direction in line with the motto: ‘be your own algorithm’. The app also offers an event calendar, special networking patches for profiles and various sustainability tools. The basic version of Orbyz therefore surpasses the usual social media functionalities. An additional highlight is the publication feature, which means that texts can not only be categorised thematically but also made audible - ‘knowledge to go’, so to speak.

‘Not every digital innovation has to come from Silicon Valley. Right now, Europe needs courageous platforms that don't outsource responsibility, but shape it,’ emphasises Gager-Palfy.

From Vienna to the world

Orbyz was founded in 2024, is independently financed, registered as an EU trademark and was developed in close collaboration with experts from the digital development and sustainability sectors. The circular logo deliberately picks up on themes such as planetary boundaries, the circular economy, dynamism and global cooperation.

Orbyz does not want to be the next social media hype. Instead, it wants to be a digital space that helps shape our future, away from populism and ideologies.

‘After 25 years of social media, it's time for change. We are convinced that technology should empower people, not control them. At Orbyz, we take this responsibility seriously,’ emphasises Gager-Palfy

Wall Street Veteran Bill Haase Debuts Book to Tackle Financial Stress and Overspending

front cover Our Mindset on MOneyBill Haase headshotlogo for Money Mindset"Our Mindset On Money" - new book by Wall Street veteran Bill Haase unpacks the psychology behind overspending— and how to take back control.This book helps you stop living paycheck to paycheck and start making intentional, confident choices with your money—no shame, no jargon, just clarity.”— Bill Haase, author CHICAGO, IL, UNITED STATES, May 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- America is drowning in debt, delusion, and denial. In his new book, Our Mindset on Money, launching May 22, 2025, financial advisor and former Wall Street broker Bill Haase delivers a blunt message: If you’re stressed about money, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy. “Nearly 8 in ten Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Credit card debt is at a record high. And most people can’t tell you what they spent last month,” says Haase. “The system isn’t just broken—it’s conditioning us to live by default, not design.” The numbers tell the story: • 77–80% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck (PNC, Reddit, Forbes) • U.S. credit card debt hit a record $1.182 trillion in 2024, with average interest rates topping 20% (NY Fed) • Credit card defaults surged 50% in 2024, hitting the highest levels since the 2010 housing crisis (Forbes) • 56% of people have no idea how much they spent last month (Forbes) This isn’t a budgeting book. It’s a mindset reset. Instead of diving into spreadsheets or savings plans, Haase offers something deeper—a guided exploration of how we think, feel, and behave around money. From childhood conditioning to adult financial trauma, he takes readers through the often-ignored psychological patterns that lead so many to live paycheck to paycheck, even as they strive for more. Haase draws from 38 years in finance—from the pits of Chicago to Main Street households—to explore why Americans can’t stop overspending, why silence around money remains pervasive, and how our need to appear “wealthy and wise” is bankrupting us emotionally and financially. Haase shares real stories—his own included—about missteps, rebounds, and the turning points that helped him regain control. With candid insights and practical frameworks, the book helps readers: • Understand the emotional triggers behind spending • Recognize generational patterns that sabotage financial freedom • Shift from living by default to living with financial intent “If spouses aren’t talking about money, they’re not teaching their kids about it either. That silence is generational—and it's costly,” said Haase. “We equate money with intelligence. If you look successful, people assume you’re smart. But most of us are faking it—and the stress is showing.” Our Mindset on Money is available starting May 22, 2025 from Money Mindset Media LLC. ➢ Buy on Amazon: https://a.co/d/esXHe6V ➢ Buy on Barnes & Noble: https://bit.ly/42jLcS6 Praise for Our Mindset on Money “Bill blends passion with practicality. His insights don’t just inform—they transform.” — Dave Nordel, CMSgt, USAF (Ret.), CEO of Vet READY “Bill has handed us a mirror and a roadmap. He challenges how we think, not just what we do, with our money.” — Connor Tyson, ChFC®, Founder of Progress Solutions LLC *** About the Author Bill Haase spent 20 years in the high-stakes trading pits of Chicago, managing transactions for firms like Drexel Burnham Lambert and Nikko Securities. In 2004, he became the first person in the U.S. to execute simultaneous pit and electronic trades. Later, as a financial advisor, he realized most people weren’t struggling with knowledge—they were struggling with awareness. His four-year radio show, Innovative Strategies, logged nearly 1,000 interviews on how to build wealth, run a business, and live with intention. That mission now continues through his podcast and this book. About the Publisher Money Mindset Media LLC is the publishing division of Intent, a leadership and content platform for entrepreneurs and CEOs. Through books, podcasts, and peer engagement, Intent equips leaders with the tools to live intentionally, think critically, and act with clarity—in business, finance, and life.

Negocjacje między UE i USA w sprawie ceł trwają. Przełom możliwy podczas czerwcowej wizyty Trumpa w Europie

Czas, jaki Donald Trump zostawił krajom obłożonym cłami na negocjacje, zbliża się do półmetka. Umowę podpisała Wielka Brytania, ogłoszono również porozumienie z Chinami. Unia Europejska, która jest czwartym partnerem handlowym USA, do niedawna zdawała się nie czynić żadnych postępów w rozmowach. Jednak negocjacje trwają. Zdaniem europosła Michała Szczerby z PO stanowisko Unii powinno być twarde, a przede wszystkim jednomyślne. Okazją do rozmów może być wizyta Trumpa na czerwcowym szczycie NATO w Hadze.

Unijne programy szansą dla polskiego przemysłu zbrojeniowego. Wkrótce uruchomione będzie 150 mld euro na niskooprocentowane pożyczki

Prace nad uruchomieniem instrumentu pożyczkowego SAFE są na ostatniej prostej. Jak poinformował MON, po wielu tygodniach negocjacji został on przyjęty przez stałych przedstawicieli państw członkowskich przy UE. Wdrożenie SAFE oznacza uruchomienie 150 mld euro niskooprocentowanych pożyczek na finansowanie inwestycji państw członkowskich w obronność. Wysiłki krajowe i unijne koncentrują się teraz na zwiększaniu potencjału europejskiego przemysłu obronnego i budowaniu zdolności obrony i odstraszania.

Roboty w służbie środowisku. Ograniczanie ilości odpadów możliwe dzięki automatyzacji

Sztuczna inteligencja i robotyka już dziś pomagają firmom ograniczać swój wpływ na środowisko. Korzyści z inwestycji w zaawansowaną automatyzację odczuwają także konsumenci. Przykładem może być automatyczny system pakowania wdrażany przez Amazon. Robot dostosowujący każdorazowo rozmiar papierowego opakowania do danego produktu pozwolił już zaoszczędzić 3 mln t materiału opakowaniowego, co oznacza dla kupujących mniej materiałów do utylizacji i prostszy recykling.
