Lately, I've been more active on Bluesky (different topic, different anon), and it's growing pretty fast. Given Elon has oriented Twitter towards anti-intellectualism, certain communities have moved wholesale already, particularly academia related. It's basically just Twitter without the bloat, but slower still... Farcaster is more interesting to me, but Bluesky has won the attention game - no one knows Farcaster exists outside the niche crypto crowd.

From a technical and product perspective, Bluesky is uninteresting to me. It's just an Elon-free Twitter clone with very few distinct features. It's allegedly open and programmable, but is there a dev community? Have they built anything?

What makes farcaster exciting to me is the dev community building agents, games, frames, actions, and apps.

I found a list of Bluseky projects. So it looks like people are building a bunch of alternative clients.
