pretty interesting to see normies looking for alternatives to meta’s social apps and maybe even starting to grasp the value of decentralization…

yet somehow still hating crypto enough to sidestep FC/lens entirely in favour of apps like bluesky. I wonder if there’s any way to welcome these types of users or whether their left/right bias is too strong to remain open-minded.

As someone with little knowledge of crypto and probably a “normie” this has been the best alternative I’ve seen so far. You can see Bluesky already having the same issues as its predecessors. 

The few days I’ve been here have sparked excitement to get involved in more conversations and to learn from y’all

At the moment I’ve been focusing on lifestyle and hobby content while trying to gain an idea of who are the main tech related follows and contributors to build a knowledge base.

The general vibe of inclusion and positivity is a step above other similar social media platforms.

love to hear this @pieroguy 

what types of conversations have been most interesting for you here? like tech-related stuff, everyday stuff like hobbies, something else?

Bluesky to me is just Left Twitter. Spamming and bots have been on the rise and it’s less of a community feel than it was portrayed to be at first. It’s become the void to yell in for the people who miss Twitter of 10-12 years ago. You can’t grow if you’re just trying to replicate the past IMO

what do you mean "same issues"? what's been your experience on bluesky?

and love that you're here. more pieroguy and pierogi content too.

Now’s the best time to try new networks! 🤝
