bluesky

  • At this point, if you go to #Bluesky just to document bad things happening to that particular social network or to report back to #Mastodon what people on a social network say about people here… I envy the time you have at your disposal.

  • #Bluesky announces "data federation for self hosters" https://bsky.social/about/blog/02-22-2024-open-social-web No thoughts here yet, just bookmarking.

  • Avoiding or ignoring controversies is my jam but i'm bookmarking what seems like a good write up on what's been going on w/ #BlueskyBridge, which includes responses to Includes negative feedback voiced from a few on #Mastodon. https://wedistribute.org/2024/02/tear-down-walls-not-bridges/ #Bluesky

  • Good read. Not really new news but summarizes I think well enough. "Social networks are getting stingy with their data, leaving third-party developers in the lurch". #Mastodon #Bluesky #API https://techcrunch.com/2024/02/09/social-network-api-apps-twitter-reddit-threads-mastodon-bluesky

  • Almost required reading for anyone posting on #socialmedia regardless if it's #Mastodon #BlueSky or X. https://notes.neatnik.net/2024/01/the-power-to-not via Adam Newbold. Time and replace for everything. Trick is knowing when which is usually far less than one initially reasons. Usually the question "will my response be welcomed or considered" is enough. ☮️

  • Good for #Bluesky. #RSS baby! https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/01/16/bluesky-adds-rss/

  • #Twitter is freaking out about #Tweetdeck, logins, and rate limits. #Mastodon is freaking out on Threads. #Bluesky… calm or poking fun, not up to freak levels yet. #Fediverse as a whole steady as she goes. No judgements here just observations.

  • Nice to see a few new faces here on #Mastodon. Also seeing faces and more follows on #Bluesky too. It's not THE #TwitterMigration but it's def. one!

  • Just a reminder: I share #WordPress news/links on wpfront.page (follow via RSS too). I’m at #Mastodon: phpc.social/@davidbisset I’m on #Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/davidb…

  • Looks like some Twitter folks trying #Mastodon and #Bluesky this weekend. Seeing more numbers on Bluesky and some more people I recognize there appear (still invite only). And looks like Bluesky performance issues have cleared up (all day yesterday was very slow but running like butter now, although it's 6am ET).

  • Listened to the latest @atpfm and could relate to @marcoarment story about cheerleaders and social groups far too well (for me it was 5th grade). #Mastodon and #BlueSky are both places worthy of being a some part of – for now – for different reasons.

  • #Bluesky rolls out very very basic moderation tools today. But i'm actually more interested in some recent information shared about making your own algorithms. Unpopular opinion on #Mastodon but I think algorithms CAN BE USEFUL THINGS. Especially if you can create your *own* (which I do to various degrees on social), but not when they…

  • User Growth at #Bluesky, #Mastodon, and Twitter via @pxlnv https://pxlnv.com/linklog/users-bluesky-mastodon/ "It all reminds me of an earlier era. I like how this is going."

  • Another day another "#fediverse and/or #mastodon will win" post in apparent reaction to… something. https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/yes-the-fediverse-will-win/ First off: I agree think some of arguments are sound. Fedi isn't going away. Donation models work. But face it – Fedi will never attract majority. Nor do they want/should to. Currently as alt. go #bluesky (still in diapers) gets…

  • #Mastodon is till the place I enjoy the most and get the most interaction. But with #bluesky I have to admit it's interesting (pros and cons) to be a part of a social network that is only 60k+. In some ways it seems almost a perfect size.

  • Untitled post 56929

    What people on #Mastodon and #Bluesky say about each other (part 1). It's a past time to talk about other social networks on the social network you're on. 😄

  • @gruber makes this as scary as it should sound. https://daringfireball.net/linked/2023/05/02/npr-musk-handle This is why even if you DON’T intend to have your own site or blog and not “own your own content” at LEAST have your own DOMAIN. Verification (#Mastodon) and/or usernames (#BlueSky) should be table stakes for any mass social platform. #Twitter

  • Apparently Angry #Mastodon has pivoted from complaining about #Twitter to putting down #BlueSky which hasn't even really gotten started. Let's focus on what's great and can be improved here in this community. </$0.02>

  • It's funny how over on Twitter there's a positive vibe about #Bluesky but almost completely opposite from what comments I've seen so far on #Mastodon. Not sure if people realize Bluesky is barely a private beta with almost no features (It's BuddyPress UI folks) or it's a kind of attitude that Mastodon has gotten noticed…

  • If you're on #bluesky i would like to follow you over there. https://staging.bsky.app/profile/davidbisset.com

  • Happy to say i’m now on #BlueSky. If you’re on there too, follow me at staging.bsky.app/profile/davidb…. I already associated my personal site – so my blog url is my username (what a cool feature). pic.twitter.com/77eNGs84Cf

  • If anyone has a #BlueSky invite they can share, let me know. Always ready to try new social things.

  • Interesting. Kind of similar to #Mastodon but I think (at first glance anyway) more readable. Domain Names as Handles in #Bluesky: https://blueskyweb.xyz/blog/3-6-2023-domain-names-as-handles-in-bluesky I haven't gotten access yet but i want to give it a try.
