I couldn’t see a thread for this subject so I thought I’d ask the question:
Who’s sacking off the cesspit that the former blue bird site has become?
And if so, where’re you going for your short form post fix now? Are any in particular working for you?
Personally, I’m giving Bluesky a go at the moment and I’m quite enjoying it. It feels like the early days of Twitter, when you could target the subjects and people you wanted; the test will be how it holds up when it gets really busy and the bots start to appear.
Anyway, I’m over there as @mattfig21b.bsky.social
I also have a few invite codes if anyone wants to give that one a go.

I never was a huge Twitter user but I use Threads now. I'm not sure if it's the best alternative but I know it's better than Shitter/X.

Anyone tried Mastodon? I have an account but I don't use any socials much besides QBN.
- I had a brief look at it, but I was quite busy and it looked quite complex. I intended on looking again when I had a bit more time, but I've not got round to itWolfboy
- I used Twitter to Mastodon follower migrate tool before API was shut down. A year later Mastodon is still growing quickly, and has a lot of good stuff.evilpeacock

- Go damn, desperate to jump ship from x and I miss this every time. Having said that if no one is on the other platform.... how is bsky?kalkal
- I find it pretty dead so hard to be interested in and it doesn't hve the usefulness of twitter. Which is a shame as it seems like the most promising alternativewebazoot
- I've probably got a couple more codes. I'll have a look.webazoot

Bluesky getting a lot of traction...
Went to check it out. 3 posts down, someone yelling at "white people" to "shut the fuck up" about some nonsense to do with drake n kendrick...
Yeah now I remember what twitter used to be like. Just as much a toxic ragebait hell hole as twitter is today. Social media was a mistake.
- Threads is juts mostly people complaining about their jobs and clients and more complaining.oey_oey
- I signed up the other day and haven't seen anything like that, just a load of interesting posts and.. no melon.Nairn
- So far it's just a lot of good art, initial algorithm stuff was quite strange, before I'd followed many accounts, it's better now.PhanLo
- I am a bit irritated that I didn't sign up earlier so missed all my usual username choices, without having to go off-piste with the host instance.Nairn

- If it's on the internet, it's scraped.Nairn
- I came across several interesing long read pieces and one book I bought so far on Bluesky, been an age since that happened on twitter.webazoot
