Is PJ on bluesky? I can’t seem to find them. I’m abandoning the other platforms and hope they join.

    Is it Twitter alt? I thought it was FB or IG alt? Idk, it’s just social alt 😂

    The guy who originally developed Twitter also was involved with the development of Bluesky.  It has similar functionalities as Twitter.  Also, after the election a lot of people bailed on Twitter and went to Bluesky.  IMO it is not similar to FB or IG.

    It’s the way Twitter used to be but with ridiculous handles and no gifs.

    Thank you! I had never heard the backstory!

    No problem!  As the poster above pointed out there are some functionalities that aren't as good as Twitter, but if didn't want to support the guy who now owns Twitter or dislike what Twitter has become under his leadership, it is a viable alternative.

    I’m off twitter as well so would also welcome this. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    To my knowledge, it was developed by Jack Dorsey while he was still at Twitter. I joined, and while the usernames are ridiculous, it is just like the Twitter I had when I joined in 2017. I left Twitter as soon as Musk acquired it and I sure wouldn’t mind leaving Instagram either when a viable alternative becomes available. (which I’ve heard bluesky may be working on)

    Metallica is on bluesky…c’mon PJ, get on board!

    To be honest I'm rarely on. But it's more about getting paid for your content. Looks like a cross between tik tok and Instagram. Now Instagram has subscriptions as well
