    Let me get this straight:

    1. Person A makes a social network
    2. People flock to it
    3. Person A sells the social network to person B
    4. Networks does a 180, destroying communitie; people outraged.
    5. Same person A makes a social network
    6. People flock to it.
    7. [surely we can predict what is going to happen here, right?]

    Bluesky can fuck right off as well. I tried it to see if it was any different than Twitter but I had to nope out after 10 minutes.

    I’ve never understood the whole Twitter formula anyways. Scroll through endless ramblings of people I don’t care about? No thanks.

    There are far better places to stay informed about certain topics or get in touch with people you know.

      Not every social media format is for everyone, no need to be hostile about it. I just can’t bring myself to engage with TikTok and Reels and such, but other people really like them and why would that be a problem for me?

            Yeeeah, none of those are particularly hostile sounding to me. He just doesn’t like the platform and is stating so. Notice how he didn’t say something like “Anyone who likes BlueSky can fuck right off”. He shared his opinion on an inanimate webpage, thats all.

      There isn’t a better place to get sports news than twitter. I’m seeing a lot of sports writers personalities start to post on Blue sky. I love it.

    Is there any FOSS Bluesky client. I want to give it a shot after so many artist moved to it from Xhitter. Even some game dev like Localthunk(Balatro) and ZUN(Touhou) moved to it.

      I’ve noticed quite a lot of devs are moving over to blue sky. I feel like there’s some blog post I’ve missed or something which everyone has paid attention to. Why are they doing it now? Twitter has being shit for ages.

    Just because democrats are leaving Twitter, this doesn’t make it dead in the slightest sense of the word
