Although it's early days, Bluesky has promising features regarding feed optimization. Users can build custom feeds and share them, you have control over sorting, etc.
I like their moderation approach as well, at least its potential. You can indicate yourself how comfortable you are regarding various potentially harmful topics: hide/warn/show.
I think this type of user control is exactly what social media needs. The power placed in the hands of users.
- ixwt 3y agoAs you said, it's early days. That's all subject to change. Especially if it goes public.
- TillE 3y agoThe most promising thing about Bluesky is that engagement seems surprisingly high. Posts from the larger accounts I follow get maybe 2000 likes on Twitter, 1000 on Bluesky, and 10 on Mastodon. I really hope they manage to federate themselves with the larger ecosystem in one way or another, it's annoying that they've chosen to not use ActivityPub.

- sdsd 3y agoThank you! At first glance, Bluesky seems great. I like X and don't care about Musk or problematic speech, but Bluesky is showing me accounts I like, whereas it's hard to convince Twitter to show me content I want to see. Maybe it's just that Bluesky's current userbase is stronger, pre eternal September. Anyway, I really appreciated your generosity. I promise to be diligent about posting, so as to honor your invite. I will behave. Unlike on X, where I'll continue being completely insane lol.
- ft_TI-84 3y agoI don't suppose you have another invite kicking around.... :)
- downWidOutaFite 3y agoBe careful with engagement stats on Mastodon, only the origin server will show all the likes and boosts.
