22 hours agoThe main problem with BLUESKY is that it’s the same regurgitated shit you find everywhere else. As a brand new user here’s the first 10 things in my feed:
- Someone trying and failing to make a clever joke about the US Presidential election.
- A picture of black hole (which is great!)
- Semi-clever joke involving Professor X and Alvin and the Chipmunks
- Self Described “transfem lesbian” screaming about how much they love women. I mean yikes it’s creepy AF.
- Boring US Political schlock about Lauren Boebert.
- Science / Astronomy content
- Video Game Post
- Self Described “#1 Gayest Lesbian” screaming about how much they love women. A copypasta of the other and still creepy AF.
- Another eye-roller “I am soooo depressed” meme.
- Boring US Political schlock defending Dr. Fauchi
So BLUESKY seems to be Twitter v2, primarily inhabited by the Pre-Elon Blue CheckMark types. Can I “fix” that with filtering? Probably but if I do then the feed will slow down so much that even checking in once per day will probably be too often.
The article body originally had it in all caps and once I noticed that I rewrote my comment that way. The article now shows it as “Bluesky” (no capital S) which is apparently the correct way. I dunno wtf is going on.
