I'm on mastadon. Got on there a few days before I jumped on Bluesky and I've already forgot Mastadon was a thing 😅

They must do it 😂

Ha! Same comment! 🕺

I personally prefer a social with the discover feed algorithm like bluesky, something that I missed for 2 years on mastodon!

Very cool! thanks for sharing For clarification though - I meant missing out *on the drama*, as a feature not a bug 🫰

I would actually like to read that story 😅

Ok. Good for him? I’m saying it’s a tool. I find a hammer I like, I’ll use it until it doesn’t suit me anymore. Then I’ll find a new hammer. Or maybe a good screwdriver. Certainly nothing I need get overly-attached to.

Boosted on both places. Love both (for a different reason) There will always be fundamentalists. This is just the new Windows vs Linux. Some users just get actual shit done 😂

I would watch this if it was with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.

is the law of our side if I say aye?

😐 people can be very silly

Urghhhh

Sounds to me like a relationship with a central point of failure.

Post, post. Crazy post. Stay cool poooost.

doing my part!

I've seen my share of it. Much of it is about the architecture, engineering, and UX of it. Some of it is about project governance as well.

They are very different platforms. Bluesky is a social network, mastodon is a lot of ver4y small social networks.

Fair enough :)

I tried Mastodon, but despite running Linux I don't have strong opinions on which flavor of Linux is best so Mastodon was kinda useless for me. Most of the people whose posts I wanted to read settled onto Bluesky.

No shade on Mastodon--it's a very cool idea. I just found it a bit clunkier than it needed to be, and sort of ended up feeling like it would never get the critical mass of users it needed to because the whole choosing a server thing was just enough friction to stop people joining

me and who honestly

Thanks to @ap.brid.gy, #Mastodon users can be part of the grassroots #Bluesky Movement! Let's be #allies! I'd like to be a dual citizen. My primary residence may be here, with regular visits to (& interaction with) Mastodon. bsky.app/profile/sabi...

they're bitter because everyone is here now

This sounds like it could be a good Techaro story

that's too bad, yet not surprising.

OUCH. Well in that case you have insider info so this makes sense. That’s disappointing though… a network needs to have volume to succeed, and if they don’t prioritize accessibility it won’t go anywhere. Unless mass adoption isn’t their goal, in which case carry on I guess. 🤷🏻

How’s it going?! It’s a nice place so far. Interested to see what daily user activity looks like when things level out…

So one would hope!

Only if we can have a dance off in the first act!

I hope there’s synchronized snapping somehow involved

Thank you! 🙏

Sounds like a cinematic story. Can we have Elon Musk guest starring as Officer Krupke hammering everyone on the head with his free speech baton? Do we keep the gang names from the original or do we use "the Skyes" and "the Dons"?

Yes but the difference is that my opinion is correct while those who disagree with me are incorrect. 🧐

both platforms have their problems - silly to see the infighting lol. wish people would just stick to valid criticisms where each platform can improve 🤷‍♀️

Well ... they both are bad, just in different ways: #Bluesky: Add an #EditButton and fix #translate to not open a new tab or window. #Bookmarks would be nice too. #Mastodon: The search function stinks! Only #hashtags are indexed by default. Add #fulltextsearch already.

Well your loss, I guess. Good luck with repeating the same old mistake as neoliberal

We all know that there is no place for two social media protocols in the internet tubes, we have to fight this out. In a Broadway musical contest.

Mastodon is for people who like to build their own PCs from scratch… just give me a Mac, please. 🦋

Meanwhile: IndieWeb: Here we go again, these youngsters making noise, I wonder how long they’ll last this time? Anyone up to document the interesting innovations that they have brought with them? So we can retain some knowledge for the future?
