What is bluesky?

Looks like Twitter for fancy people
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

What is bluesky?

The most used twitter alternative before threads, became a thing last week. it's very much left leaning, it's essentially pre-trump twitter. It's pretty good but the sports are lacking a bit. The posts aren't called tweets but skeets.

I have two invite codes for anyone who DMs me.

so, i'm trying to see the difference between Threads and Instagram and the only difference I can see is that you can post w/o a pic on Threads.

the format/readability is v different.  Once they add more features, it will become more separate.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

I saw a TikTok with a guy theorizing that Meta made a judgment call about launching before Threads was developed more than it is. Because they figured the time was right to get a good foothold. And that they intend to continue to develop in ways that will attract more users.

I don’t think that’s up for debate

This all sucks. Musk needs to hire all the old staff to undo everything and then enjoy being rich all the time vacation/retirement style.

I don't need any more social media, but it's tempting knowing that #deflectodug will avoid the topic of the post entirely and go into immediate #deflectodug  :blush: :blush:  then   :curse: :curse: followed by  :bawl: :bawl:

Did the tweet viewing cap just quietly go away? I never seemed to have an issue.

It lasted about a day and then they removed it. Also the same thing with having to log in to view content. Too much pushback and Musk caved almost immediately.

is it possible Musk is killing twitter because he was sick of people owning him on it? seems a very simple answer. hubris is still probably the leader in the clubhouse but there are some holes left to play for sabotage and it just hit an eagle on 16. (golf analogy)

read some write up this morning that I can't track down that had a quote that was something like "elon musk is now challenging another social media company owner with a penis measuring contest. he also bought twitter. these two things are not unrelated" I'm sure I screwed that up bigly so imagine that but written better.

I think it's great.  TURN IT OFF.  Or, in the alternative, make it so bad and frazzled that no real "Twitter" exists. :party:
