I'm not sure if I would agree with that, definitely a lot of political arguments going on in bsky. It definitely used to be an echochamber though. But with Twitter being packed with Nazi's and every other comment being a sex-spambot I would guess plenty of non-traditional bluesky users have come over.
- itsoktocry 2y agoI have a niche I follow on Twitter, and during the great Twitter migration a few month back, everyone made an effort to head to Bluesky. I did as well, because I want good content, I don't care about the platform. It's already a ghost town. Sparse posting, lots of empty "here's what I cooked for supper" posts.
- immibis 2y agoIf Nazis become the majority, then non-Nazism is an echo chamber phenomenon. Is this fixable?
- rsynnott 2y agoYes, through blocklists. Jesse Singal and his coterie of ‘just asking questions’ ‘polite’ transphobes are on Bluesky, say, but through judicious use of blocklists one never needs to hear from them.
- immibis 2y agoThat's an echo chamber.
- rsynnott 2y agoI mean, sure, okay. And, er, so? I don’t go to social networks to listen to weird obsessive bigots. If nothing else, those people are incredibly _boring_; it’s basically just the one joke. There is no moral obligation to listen to the ranting of crazy people.
