Same

Sooooo... IT'S WORKIN'! 🥳

I'm smitten. And I believe that BlueSky will dominate the social media space, loisening the stranglehold the greedy, lying oligarchs have on our media & discourse.

so far so good,,

TikTok is a toxic cesspool of mis- and dis-information. I'm glad for an at protocol competitor!

Exactly. Don't try to mimic what others do best. Shine where others fail.

Why not.

I also like the idea of allowing content filtering, authentication, truth verification, etc. to be handled by 3rd parties. I thought this was promised by Bluesky but I haven't seen much of yet. Still hopeful though. 2/2

X is in hospice 👍

Separate, but very worthwhile, project.

It’s the Cash, I’d bet

The stock market is keep X open via musk. It's losing money and he's now having to rob Peter to pay Paul and is refinancing debt after debt and using stock prices to hide he's producing nothing. He's repeating the mistakes of Enron. And I think investors know it now.

I just saw this video on TikTok and immediately downloaded Skylight.

Y’all can’t event get a edit button and want to take over social media 😂

I love blue sky, but don’t get over your skis

They all come out of the same mould so that makes sense

That's not accurate (for now). Bluesky is a Benefit Corporation, which operates under a different model. Yes, they want to make a profit, but that's not their only stated goal (again, for now) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit...

Where is the cash?

Thank you for all that you do. I was never a social media type person but through watching Ojeda Hal sparks was a quest and both me and my partner decided to go on Bluesky and we both love it. Thank you again Tiger 🐅

Agreed. Seems nice too, which is becoming rare.

Twitter is a joke, its just bots and hate!

“Plotting”?? Nice

As long as this social media site doesn't turn into hateful X, or Facebook. I came to this site to get away from the hateful drama, to be able to have conversations without everyone becoming insulted just because I don't agree with them. To have meaningful conversations. Just don't ruin this site.

Notifications when

Tah-dah! Gawd, I'd like to invest in Bluesky. "Michael, we're bigger than US Steel."

Now somebody ask her why they keep banning Palestinians

we can't even send images in dm's yet bro lmao are they fucking stupid

Really? This is what we will be?

I’m just waiting for BlueSky to have a save draft option.

And my favorite thing is that I can say "fuck trump" and not get banned.

Thanks for all your efforts, Reed!

If I have to see tik tok style videos on this app I’m leaving.

Open protocols, open world

What do they consider X because most of us, I would assume, don't want those bots and alt-reality freaks on BlueSky.

Wired, if you're upset by Bluesky growing....thank Elon. If Elon hadn't ruined Twitter for all but his rabid right followers, I'd still be there. Stayed there a long time, in fact, until it got too toxic. Tried out a couple of other early alternatives...didn't fit my needs.

Good

The more people that join here, the rougher Bluesky has become. Anyone else notice? Rudeness and arrogance are far more common than when I joined a few months ago. Trolls and bots on the upswing too. And we STILL don't have an edit button...

“Plotting a total takeover.” Click bait. It sounds like a FOX chyron.

Let's help them out! Make Musk and Dorsey look stupid.

boycott meta,amazon, x and every other platform or business owned by those fascists and fascist loving nazis one way we can flex our muscle with our money

Why didn't they tag @skylight.social or @flashes.blue in the description ...

BlueSky needs to stop censoring posts. We users are quite capable of deciding what we want to see and don't want to see!

sweeeet ... now an alternative to youtube pleeeease

And we are trying our best to keep all those rabid users on that Sunkin Place App OUT

Wait, I thought blue sky was coming up with a sister program that allowed video and what not or was that just photos?

Problem with bluesky is that the algorithm is too limiting, too extreme in bubble-building around singular themes / strands. Most people are not that mono-interested...

We have a bug on sign-in that we're working on shipping a fix for! Thanks for being here and trying out @skylight.social ☺️

Love this energy!! 🙌🏽

Oh and can I have an edit button soon? Pretty please? (Embarrassing how I typed BlueSky. 🤦‍♂️)

👏👏👏

Naw, its just saying that more seperate apps are going open-protocol meant to be alternatives, and they play nice with Bluesky.

We need more democratic politicians on the site.

That would be good.

it is better than facebook

The jury is still out on Bluesky.

Did you ask how do she gets her arms through those sleeves without getting a thumb stuck in a hole?

I'm going to need Bluesky to replace Reddit cause I just got banned for 2 days for suggesting that Elon Musk did not suffer any consequence for the people he's hurt.

Agree.

Takeover of the internet doesn’t sound noble. Producing a non-toxic alternative to what’s out there is more accurate

Well spoken, great communicator ❤️ bsky ceo

I’m for it

I’m thinking eventually there will be an app like Bluesky and it will link to likeminded apps that replace FB, IG, etc. Then there will be a separate but similar group of apps based around Truth Social and never the Twain shall meet.

Fine. They can start by banning nazis and their shitty little enablers.

Happy to realize that, although not active yet, @mlb.com is here. Still no NFL.

Totally!

I never was on twitter or fucking x and neither on tiktok, but I'm here to block right wing nutcases.

I’m so excited!🙏🏻

You probably find they get paid through X

Well BlueSky is gonna have to do better with its Trends and hashtag management. It’s still not as user friendly as Twitter was (pre-Musk). Harder to see what’s happening, respond, and get views. A lot of people have gone back to Twitter because of it. Just saying.

Like our democracy, if we can keep it this way

Good.

Until I get the same info, especially sports, as quickly & easily, as I can on twit space, I’ll be dissatisfied w/ bluesky. There are placeholders for many of my local news & sports. They don’t use it. @bsky.app should try something to stop the practice of just ‘holding a spot’. RECRUIT THEM TO POST

Personal opinion, I would much rather Bluesky stay as a smaller, lesser-known platform instead of a larger, well-known platform. Nowadays most of the famous, larger social platforms are a massive pool of problems. Not saying that Bluesky is exempt from this behavior, but we see it LESS here.

I trust Jay.

All the evil companies are trying for it, why not a neutral company? Nobody's won that claim except Google who has the greatest monopoly. But give it a try

Bluesky should focus on making this app work better first cause it sucks

Before I turned the sound on I thought this was a video demo-ing some new AI video generation or something. 😳

We must lovingly stomp hate and those that worship hate into the ground and deeper.

Yes.

No plot to it. Better product, Better standards, freedom of choice. People know a good thing when they see it.

This Is By Faaaaar The Best Social App For Sure‼️ facebook❓🖕 X❓ #MuskTheFucktard Can Go Back To #TrumpTheFucktards' Colon‼️🖕 TicTok❓ Times Up❗🖕

I would not call this site an echo chamber. In fact there is little discussion which annoys me. Folks just hit the like button and maybe a repost if you are lucky. Bluesky will not evolve or become relevant if there is no community.

Can we please start with an edit button, please?

Indeed it is.

Quick, RFK Jr, take a dip in it. 🏊‍♂️

Anything that caters to one political point of view is not going to take over the internet. Daily active user numbers for Twitter/X in the US have dropped, with some reports indicating a decrease of 23% since November 2022, according to Sensor Tower.

Graybeard

Social Internet? Ok boomer

I support Palestinians. Would I know I've been throttled/blocked/etc? I never see more than 10 interactions per post, anyway. 🤷‍♂️

#DeleteX #BanXInCanada

Huh.

Awesome! Facts and REAL Truth is the only way to stop the cult!

I no longer share any personal content whatsoever on any social media platform that's corporately owned. They want to make money out of my content - fine, here are my rates.

I will use the Blik Block, but I will never use Twittler or TikTok.

Bluesky be trolling Elmo! 😂

To all the naysayers saying the AT Protocol "should not" be used to create a TikTok-like experience (freed from the corporate profit motives of big tech) I say: Get the frig out of here. I would much rather Instagram & TikTok replaced by Open replacements.

Excellent.
