What did I miss with bluesky? other then no interactions and tooting into the void?
Not only that, but the way admin and mods are treating trans people is reprehensible. Even big accounts (i.e., Parker Molloy) are getting dogpiled on and run off the platform.
I'm not officially quitting it, but I'm going to endeavor to be over here more often.

No judgment on your decision but numbers matter to this company. I would recommend deleting the account. unlink your domain first just in case you ever want to go back. And delete the account. Just my two cents.

@Em0nM4stodon what is happening at bsky?
@jmorris @Em0nM4stodon
ICE were approved an accountthey are noting who blocks them too
its like you're being policed in real-time, on social media, and if you're a vocal critic maybe you're found and disappeared

@Em0nM4stodon Wow. I have been off most other platforms since September, so I had no idea this was happening. This makes me want to delete my Bluesky account, I might as well, I think I have posted once in the last 4-5 months. No use for it anymore.

@Em0nM4stodon I did and it felt awesome!

@Em0nM4stodon
Well, there you go.Only just made a Bluesky account, thinking it would help me promote my books a little farther.
Felt kinda uncomfortable with it, to be honest, but saw it as an obligation.But nope. You gave me the perfect excuse to get and stay off.
Me and my 9 measly followers won't make that big of a difference, but I'm gone.Readers on the Fedi are better, anyway
@amPennyfeather if it makes you feel any better, I had 1100 followers on Bluesky but I was rarely posting there because of their weird algorithms. I’d get 1-2 interactions at best, it felt like skeeting into the void. The Fediverse is so much better and more human. I’ve built so many amazing friendships on here

Yeah, you know, funny timing… I was considering holding my nose and creating an account there just to have a presence so once in a while I could announce when I had new photos available for sale, even if it was just to direct people to mastodon or my website, but nah, fuck that.
@Mikal @Em0nM4stodon
Yeah, for sure.
Supporting something so vile is not worth the extra one or two sales

@amPennyfeather @Em0nM4stodon BlueSky is fine.
ICE got verified* BUT is also, in under 24 hours, the 3rd most blocked account on the site. (Please note these “blocked” stats don’t include moderation lists, these are just individual users - for example, JD Vance is being blocked by over a million actual users via block/moderation lists)*On BlueSky verification is basically the same as Mastodon. It just means “yes, it’s them”
