Never be hubristic with a populist fascist party. We just saw what happened in the States to our peril. They must be exposed root, stem, leaf, and rot.

My family used to go thw extra mile not to acknowledge actual achievements too much in case you got big-headed. Meanwhile this bunch of scroungers dish out awards and titles for absolutely nothing.

Appreciate this may not be a universally popular opinion but the less you treat BlueSky as a crusade or cause, and the more you position it as simply a superior user experience with a better governance approach, the more sustainable the growth will be.

Supporting the farmers for what’s in it for him. He’ll drop them like he did the fishermen when they were no longer of use. Will Self called him a grubby little opportunist. Will was right.

I think it was a mixture of ads right wing blue ticks overly promoted and lack of engagement for me. I have had a Bluesky account since June 2023. But it was pretty dead. It started picking up after the Musk promoting UK riots and Brazil Supreme court. Now it looks like old Twitter but better.

I can't be bothered with them anymore, Paolo. I've popped back on TwiX once or twice just to see why I left. I'm far happier today than I was on Wednesday. I want it to stay that way. No more blue tick wankers. Oh, what joy.😉

Discussing Bluesky migration in terms of liberal flight misses the simple fact that most people use social media for fun not influence and this platform, unlike X and cruddified Facebook, doesn’t feel like you’re wading through shit to reach your friends. It’s not that deep.

I'm not rich by any means, but I've got enough that I don't particularly worry about money. Is there not a point where these people think, that's it, I can buy anything I want, I can't even begin to spend everything I have? That I just don't need more? No?
