What I miss is when there's breaking news, the Old Bird seemed to have it covered, much like your very own wire service. Now it's Troll City with a few exceptions. Cant wait to see what he does with the economy. He's a worse business person than DJT Worse than DJT? That's actually impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a family member who worked for an engineering/architectural firm that got into bed with Tesla a few years ago. It was a fiasco. The company had to do some major downsizing as a result. Musk is another one of those guys who thinks he's the smartest in the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but he seems like the type of person who swoops into companies just to get their products, and has little or no understanding of how to build a line of products from beginning to end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfife Posted Tuesday at 01:55 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 01:55 PM Im stoked you guys are digging bsky. Ive been there since July or so exclusively and it did help be break ties with X no doubt. With the most recent migration of people since the election is looking a lot more like pre Leon twitter. We even have AOC saying shes all about alf hog now so its got juice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted Tuesday at 06:05 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:05 PM So, I had joined Bluesky on an invite last year, tried it out for a few days, saw it wasn't really getting much traction, and bailed, just like most people. This time feels different. I went to recreat my news/politics feed from Twitter and went to my Following list there to try to follow those same accounts at bsky. I would say that roughly two-thirds of them are not yet there as of this minute, including some real major Twitter players. Of the one-third that are at bsky, I see several of them posted a lot in the June to July 2023 timeframe, then not at all until anywhere from a month ago to a few hours ago. So it seems like people are rediscovering bsky, and I would bet there will be a huge surge in users and usage every day for the next few weeks, and the Bluesky Surge will become an actual news story at some point before the holidays really get revved up. Too bad I can't invest a few bucks in them right now. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kacie Posted Tuesday at 06:06 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:06 PM Someone needs to make a MTS starter pack 🙂. Bluesky has been a breath of fresh air. Once the sports, breaking news and dog content picks up, it'll be perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when everyone tried Hive after Elmo bought Twitter? That didn’t last. Bluesky seems like the best alternative so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted Tuesday at 06:51 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:51 PM Starter Pack — Bluesky (bsky.app) Detroit Lions starter pack. I see the POD podcast guy is on Chris Perfett @perfett.bsky.social Again, the actual team needs to put out content with their official feed rather than being in the cesspool that is twitter.

Motown Bombers Posted Tuesday at 11:07 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:07 PM I was on Bluesky back when it was invitation only, and it was mostly leftists complaining about student debt and how they weren't voting for Biden. I'll have to give it another go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
