Browsing BlueSky this morning I saw people talking about their favorite video game characters and all kinds of cool stuff. Browsing X this morning I saw racism, a bunch of right-wing ads and someone getting shot. Sometimes you don’t realize how bad something is until you come to something better.
I had to delete twitter because I kept having my feed plagued with self-harm and eating disorder posts no matter how many times I blocked or marked as not interested. Bluesky has not only a better algorithm, but a better userbase as well and I'm all for it.
It’s like being out in 100° 90% humidity heat and stepping into an air conditioned office building. Just WHOOSH
I haven’t even checked Twitter today. I’ve been up for over 3 hours and usually I check it within the first 5 minutes. I will go take a peak and update accordingly
The first thing I saw on X this morning was "this is why you shouldn't be using BlueSky" despite that crowd not even caring about it before. On here, I just see people enjoying themselves and having fun while having full control of what they see.
I see 0 news on this app. It makes me so happy because I was practicing news avoidance for a while now and try not to read much for my own sanity, it was barely possible with twitter, but here? Cats, art, video games - what else I can wish for
My bro went viral 🤝
I had this exact same experience yesterday. Getting on here made me realize even more just how much depressing and hateful stuff is on X
The other day on Twitter, I saw a picture of a decapitated head on the ground. Someone posted it to make a joke. That's the stuff we won't be able to block anymore over there.
Elon really messed that place up :/ The vibes here are nice
It was bloody demoralising. Finally gave it the kick last night. Deleted the account and the app. No more switching between the 2. This place is just blessed relief.
