Yeah people just seem determined to make terrible choices. I am glad people are finally leaving twitter–but–like–why so late!? Why to Bluesky!?!
But I actually wound up making an account on Bluesky today and followed a few accounts from people I like. I figure at the very least, if they’re able to successfully move once, maybe they’ll be more willing to do it again at some point? Hopefully they come to Mastodon and I can follow them with the account I’ve already had there for years now…
that’s pretty much it… with the atproto/ap bridge it becomes a LOT more viable to interact across networks, and thus people can choose to move and use whatever platform they like, and that helps to solve the critical mass problems that we have in the fediverse
That’s the gist of what I posted here (lacking in the hip street slang). It’d be great to get everyone on to the Fediverse but perhaps it isn’t ready yet (I’m hoping Iceshrimp.net gains traction when it’s done as it has a lot of the features people are looking for) or perhaps the potential users aren’t.
Is it funny? Sure. Would I like to be on Bluesky? hell no.
But we need everybody off X pronto. No more waiting, no more “well they use it for work”, none of that. And this didn’t help. So.
Get it back up, get the Xitters in there, and let’s hip them to the real Mastodizzle.
