Bluesky

Seems every few months lately there’s a new social media darling. I was perfectly content being mostly on Twitter for 15 years until Musk turned it into a dinner party for Nazis. Quitting Facebook after the 2016 election was a great move. Leaving Twitter is looking more and more like the correct choice.

But now I’m split between Mastodon, Threads, Instagram, and now Bluesky.

To shamelessly quote myself:

My Instagram is pretty quiet, occasionally posting a pic of a dog or a mountain or something. I try not to post too many personal photos anymore (I used to, then I started thinking about future consent, so I’m a lot more judicious.) My Mastodon feed is noisier, with lots of posts about tech, politics, pop culture, music, etc.

Threads is a shit show of copy/paste posts, rage-bait algorithms, and hot takes from lukewarm minds. It’s almost tedious.

Anyway, I’m on Bluesky now - so follow me there!
