Mister Blue Sky, blue sky, blue sky

And outright porn, sure. Why do you think I spent so much time on twitter? ;)

Actually, once I got more active on Blue Sky, I promptly got followed by four different women who wanted to share nudes and their OnlyFans page with me. That stuff is everywhere.
 
BlueSky seems like it could be the replacement for Twitter. Far better shot than Threads.

I just want sports stuff and quality news and breaking news. All have improved the last few weeks. A ways to go, but I've remained interested.

I haven't posted on Twitter in a couple of years. I've kept my account because it has still been better at the things I want to read. But that is rapidly changing.

I took the app off my phone and didn't look at it for about a week. When I looked again, I had forgotten just how overrun it is with assholes, trolls and bots.

The time has pretty much arrived for me to nuke it.

Edit to add: I also want to cut my social media viewing time by about 75 percent. It's less and less interesting to me.
 
Can't help you with posting them here... but to find your Twitter follows, there's a browser add-on called Sky Follower Bridge that will show you the Bluesky handle of your Twitter follows.

Nice feature, but I can't it to work for some reason.
 
Go to your Twitter while you're signed in. Click on Profile. The addy will read x.com/yourhandle. Add /following after your name and it will list your follows. Then run the app.

I think I'll like Bluesky

but could their @s be a little cleaner than @spartan-grad.bsky.social? Feels unnecessary to have all of that
It also needs something catchier to describe posts than "@asshole posted douchiness on Bluesky today, film at 11."

"Tweet" is a supreme bit of branding, unmatched in social media. Alas …
 
Elon is shook by Bluesky. Used to only get notifications on my company's account on Tw/X when someone with a big following would comment or Like. The last few days, I'm getting almost every one on the company account. It's like, "HEY, ENGAGE WITH US. PLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEE."

I want this to be true, but I fear it's wishcasting. Would love to be wrong, but a) Twitter has such an enormous head start that even people who hate Musky Boy with every fiber of their being (which is every non-racist person/every non-wannabe tech bro out there) are still Tweeting there regularly and b.) Musky Boy no longer needs Twitter to make himself relevant. He's in Dumb fork's cabinet, for all intents and purposes. Now, I will say it's probably inevitable that Musky Boy ends up out on his ass from Mar-A-Dumbfork sooner than later. In that case, yeah, he may need Twitter more than he needs it now.

They're trying to make "skeet" happen which is ask kinds of bad
