I'm finding Bluesky as engrossing as I used to feel when I was Twitter obsessed back in the good ol' days. It's great!

I was never addicted to Twitter like i am to bluesky. I didnt use Twitter much. I probably had 10 followers. Now im getting a lot more. I feel like my words kind of mean something now, and not just yelling into the void.

You come on here just to continue the incessant arguing you so crave. Is your real life really that empty?

Yes, their lives are that empty and full of hate and ignorance. Iโ€™m sure they relationships in the real world are lacking. They are craving attention even if itโ€™s hate. Youโ€™re not welcome here. Go back to the cesspool.

so people are sharing this photo but i assume theyโ€™re misunderstanding. itโ€™s ONE personโ€™s screen usage report that they were showing to the world. i think people mistook it as a global stat

But we can totally curate our own feeds. Sure, it was nice when we didn't have to swat them down at all, but the point is we CAN play whack-a-mole with them at our leisure. And while they're tied up her failing to make themselves more than a minor nuisance, they're boosting the whole platform.

I have fb, but it is private only for family and friends from back home. Same for instagram. I started a threads a while back, but havenโ€™t been on it. I havenโ€™t removed twitter yet, use it to cuss out musk. Stephen King left, one other person and I will probably end it too.

This is the only metric that matters. Most people wonโ€™t switch instantly. Itโ€™s gradual. Over time we slowly find ourselves opening Bluesky more often than the other social apps we used to turn to. Without necessarily deciding consciously, it becomes the app we open first.

VERY INTERESTING STATS

Just a glimse of what happens today. But it shows, that decent reporters now find more traction on Bluesky than on Twitter.

You can say that this was expected. And yes it was, since the Twitter ownership now is Putin and Musk - two complete morons.

The trent is so clear.

This post may be slightly misleading as it shows stats for an individual device. As of December 3, 2024, Bluesky has experienced significant growth, reaching 24 million users. It remains smaller than X and Instagram. X with 350 million active users/Instagram's Threads boasts 275 million users.

Bluesky shows promising signs. Publishers report three to four times higher engagement/conversions on Bluesky compared to other platforms. Aditionally, Bluesky's customizable algorithms and user-selected moderation filters have attracted users seeking more control over their social media experience.

I'm not so sure about this platform.

Yesterday, after rejecting Elon Musk's attempt to follow me, all of my followers mysteriously disappeared, so way fewer people 'see' me.

That's what he was doing at Twitter.

Could Blue Sky be a Trojan Horse?

Bluesky has zero ties to Twitter now.

Dorsey left this platform in a spectacular way, throwing his support behind Apartheid Boy instead.

So yeah, we're safe here, in that regard.

I would rather just block the people that are actually bullying, name-calling, sharing misinformation. Those are the people that need to culled. Itsfine to be of a different mindset or right wing cause not all of them are nuts. But not if youโ€™re being an a hole, sharing misinformation or propaganda.

Yea this is a bad take lol. I voted for kamala but unless theyโ€™re actively saying bigoted things i donโ€™t think they should just be censored on the basis of political opinion. bskg is a unique approach to social platforms and it shouldnโ€™t be so politicized
