I reconnected with a lot of mutuals via Sky Follower Bridge. It's a browser plugin that looks at your Twitter, finds Bluesky users with the same name, and gives you a nice interface to follow them. Recommended: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sky-f...

I was hoping to reinvent myself on Bluesky as a more mature and sophisticated citizen of the world but I really just want to know what my game people and comrades are up to.

Good recommendation! I did something like this for Mastodon a couple years back but then most people I followed stopped using Mastodon. Fingers crossed either Twitter gets back to normal or Bluesky gets up to speed.

it's unfortunately Chrome only, though i guess i managed to find most people through trawling through the follows of a bunch of different mutuals
