the gently caress is bluesky?


Lets talk about the cool new social media that's making a piss poor attempt to recreate the twitter "glory days"
Post your fav "skeets" and accounts and in general just recommend folk to follow because imo it's a bit of a nightmare to navigate trying to find people relevant to your interests and hobbies.
So share your own accounts too if you want or whatever.

Also post your invite codes here.
Important Note: When you accept an invite code the person who gave you it will be informed of the account you've created. So if you wanted to remain anonymous or whatever then be careful about who you're accepting the invite from. Also invitees please don't post accounts who accepted codes from you. :thanks:

I got an invite thanks to a kind goon here. I've had the account for maybe 3 days but don't have any invites to share yet. Do you have to use the account very actively or does it just take a while?

I think it just takes a while. I was told you get an invite code once a month but I think they've been throwing out a few more to folk at random.

I'm still finding it feels really empty but if you've already got a bunch of accounts in mind to follow then it should be all good for you.

Neat!

No codes yet. Got a code from a goon yesterday so when I get some I'll pay it forward. Seems alright so far? Ive never used twitter much but it sure is one of those.

@sedgr.bsky.social

I'm using it for posting AI art. Probably stick with that for a bit.

Its not at random, I don't know how fast a normal person gets them, but I've seen that a few media type people have been getting loads of them.

A little bit yeah. I've mostly just changed it up so I don't see every single reply because I was following Neil Gaiman and he responds to pretty much EVERYONE so my entire feed was just him chatting away to his fans lol
I'm only following 32 people. I'm just a bit slow to find people especially those I followed on twitter (I've forgotten what their names could be, whoops).

The weirdest thing about Bluesky so far is that the general vibe seems to be almost identical to the vibe of my Tumblr feed, right down to the fascist-shaming.

Can't complain though, I like my Tumblr and it's a decent enough way to look at cats and funny posts while I'm idle in a meeting or something.

It's nothing amazing, but it's not a bot-ridden hellscape yet so I'll probably enjoy it while it's chill.

To be fair, Neil is very sweet and the fact that my feed was filled with his replies was kinda super wholesome but yeah I had exactly the same problem.

Also I come bearing a code so you too can see Neil Gaiman reply to the world

my god. it's full of posts
I keep getting followed by accounts with 100 followers and 15,000 following and they're all universally cat pictures accounts or AI grifters. Thankfully, there's a solution.



If only the devs weren't such loving weirdos about safety measures so I could instantly block an entire mutelist with a single click.

It’s impressive how fast the twitter ship is sinking right now. All of us rats scurrying off. I just can’t stand the drama around it lol. Felt like being on Trump’s truth social.
