I've created a list for Bluesky users who were part of philosophy Twitter back in the day. Help me populate it! Also happy to add people who wish they had been part of the old community. I've added a few names already. (Ask if you'd like to be removed.) bsky.app/profile/did:plc:3s2chfwpiqw4yehshol4oy43/lists/3miyfqv2wnt2n

That's about when I started using twitter to talk to philosophers. I'd be keen to join your new group if you don't mind.

It'll be even more descriptive when we forget it's derived from twitter 🤪

Speaking as a twit, I think that's a good idea. Seriously, it would be good to have a way of filtering posts intended specifically for the community (the list collects everything the members post), and I guess a hashtag is the best way.

Uneducated layperson here. How can we "folk" have access to the philosophy posts/discussions on Bluesky? Is it as simple as searching for #phil or something?
