“Bluesky is pretty dead” *proceeds to follow nearly no one or make use of any custom feeds*

to be fair, I think people have to learn how the platform works, and that is non-trivial

Oh geeze. Probably so used to Twitter defaulting to “lemme just guess and throw stuff at you that’ll make you buy this pillow”

A lot of people on Twitter have this weird “you follow me” mentality. A lot of people rarely like to put work into interacting with others. They want others to come to them 🤷‍♀️

i saw someone in a discord server say that bsky is only good for following your friends and nothing else because of this

"this place seems dead" is how you get algo newsfeeds. Because most places desperately prioritize low effort new users over the core product and regular users. Which is how all the networks converged on one catchy feed of lil viral videos. best minds of my generation invented waiting room TV.

Lies, everyone here is either a robot or a zombie. Completely 💀

I can’t imagine why only following people who still predominantly use Twitter would mean your following feed would be inactive

Saw someone moaning about this, checked their profile, and they were following 13 people.

bluesky isnt dead, it's too active :/

I think some people see the visual resemblance to Twitter and just assume everything works the same way, without bothering to find out how things actually work.I think some people see the visual resemblance to Twitter and just assume everything works the same way, without bothering to find out how things actually work.
