Official account of Bluesky announced that it got 1 million new users since the registration was opened to everyone.
Bot farms are always early adopters
Nostr is the way. I think it’s going to end up with way more adoption than mastodon or bluesky. I wrote a post comparing nostr vs mastodon if anyone is curious. https://lemmy.ml/post/11570081
bluesky is great because - at least in my feed - it’s pretty much tumblr from 2010 but also a safe haven for trans ppl :)
also book twitter - especially romance book twitter - moved over there and that was my favourite part of twitter.
“Mastodon? Why use a free decentralized option when I can give my data to a billionaire?” - People around me.
lmk when they bother to federate.
otherwise it’s just a worse twitter.
I don’t think Bluesky is better than any instance on Fediverse, but we need to make changes I guess.
If it kills Twitter it will be a net benefit to the world
It won’t be, because it’s just another Twitter.
Mastodon’s AGPL license will always be better though
Yeah but if mastodon itself (the community and content) isn’t better, then it’s a moot point
Oh get the fuck out of here. All Bluesky has is celebrities and celebrity journalists, big fuckin whoop.
I’d way rather talk to real human beings instead of the Public Relations Team of a bunch of wankers.
Sorry, most humans are obsessive about stupid celebrity culture, and that doesn’t mean it’s a better product. It means it’s a more vapid product.
Settle down dude.
A big chunk of the comic art people from twitter went there. The art community on Mastodon is very mid. So that’s a big part of why I like Bluesky.
And while I don’t care about following journalists personally, that’s arguably one of the major things people want out of a twitter-like platform. Breaking news.
Threads is much worse for celebrity bullshit.
