It's a breath of fresh air. I literally find myself opening this app, thinking, "Let's see what fun stuff is going on over here!"
Opening Twitter, the mindset is much more "how the fuck has this place not burned down yet. Uneducated masses with unwashed asses still reign supreme." *closes app*
wouldn't say no. thank you. I've gone through a few starter packs and it's mainly the same bigger accounts each time. I'm looking for people people. cheers 🍻
Appreciate it, but honestly, I didn’t want to interact with the lunatics over there so that was my main deterrent. As far as I can tell we don’t have those here so I like being sociable now lol
The vibes are immaculate. It's what I wanted the experience to be when I first started dabbling in the IWC years ago. How're you since jumping over here?
I wasn’t very active on the other site AT ALL so I don’t have a frame of reference but I’m whole heartedly loving my time here so far. Also the starter packs and blocklists have been doing WONDERS for my feed 😁😁
Great to see this friendly vibe. It feels like you are only interacting with people that want to bring positivity and share their love for wrestling and other hobbies without the fear to get flooded with hate and insults. Its all so refreshing
So much more positive! I actually feel comfortable interacting and posting without feeling like I'm going to have someone jump on me and get into an argument because we have different opinions on wrestling.
I stull mainly use twt, but in the last probably 2ish months ive had Bluesky ive opened it probably a dozen times more in the last 24 hours than i did last month
Honestly, considering just how positive and welcoming everyone here is, I might actually become more active in posting stuff here lol. It's great over here!
Just made the jump today and I’m happy to see some familiar faces. Would be cool to get some more of em over here though. Other than that, it’s been way less… well I don’t close the app regretting opening it nearly as much as I do with the other one.
My mood has lifted. I don’t see violent street fight videos. I’m not bombarded with ads for shit I’ve never heard of. The lack of bots is great. No Elon being a fucking weirdo. Everyone I’ve chatted too so far has been cool. It’s been tremendous. Like Twitter circa 2013.
Twitter died years ago. I’ve spent very little time here but I find it much less anxiety inducing so far. I hope I can hook up with some of my twitter follows on here then officially delete X
I like that it is civil over here and I can have debates and discussions without someone saying something outlandish or attacking my character even though they don't even know me.
Rather refreshing!
Admittedly a bit daunting as still don't know what's happening. But the fact I can scroll and see 0 negativity is somewhat pleasing for the brain!
I'm finding it very well because there is so much positive vibes here. It's nice and lovely on this app and I like it. Twitter was getting filled with too much negativity it affected my mental state. Here on Bluesky, everyone is happy to be here.
I am extremely suspicious of the niceness. Maybe I am just a jaded old bastard, but surely not everyone can really be that nice all the time. My natural cynicism is struggling because I don't want to be the first one to start an argument just for shiggles
It's been incredible. On Twitter, I feel like I was always mad and lashing out at the negatively on there...On here, it's very peaceful. Total night & day.
I've been on both this and Twitter today, but I'm spending more time here. I still have mutuals over there that I interact with, and some pages for entertainment and sports news that probably won't move that I'm keeping up with. But this is like old Twitter in that it's FUN.
It’s a lot more chill and it’s nice to not see bots everywhere. Need the sports reporters to make the jump or at least cross-post before it takes off to an even higher level.
I'm starting to find more people and blocking others from that damn bird app that I know are trolls/miserable pos. It'll take a while to get my numbers back.
It's different. I'm probably not going to be very good at this app 😹 but I really enjoy seeing everyone enjoying themselves and posting what they like. I quit watching pro wrestling a while ago but it's super cool to see and reconnect with all of the wrestling accounts here. We weren't the problem!
Like, the only part I don't like is that you generally get less likes and interactions here then on X, which sometimes is a downer for a small account like mine
It's fun. It's not algorithm-based so you feel like you can keep refreshing the feed and finding new conversations to have. Plus none of the world's most awful people are here
Definitely prefer this place, vibes being way better aside I like being able to just jump in and talk about stuff without it being fucking debate class or an argument. Also so much better sans bots and AI content.
Very cool! Getting a ton of followers (although that’s not my goal) I feel I can be myself here and talk about whatever pops into my brain (which may or may not be a good thing lol 😂)
The ones on the bird app say it's all AEW fans and it's just gonna be an echo chamber.
No, dipshit, we just don't wanna argue stupid points. We wanna share matches, art work, stories. We wanna watch WRESTLING and not have to choose a side. I love it here. #NeverGoingBack.
Seriously. I don't need Ed from Florida, with all his years of shoe sales experience, to tell me how a company who just inked a $175M+ TV deal is gonna die. Tell me what your favorite move is. That's what I wanna know, Ed.
it's amazing. the platform still has growing to do, but it feels like 2014-ish twitter. No ads or quote-posts of horrendous far right talking points, just stuff I actually want to see. And a great community feel too.
Takes a little getting used to navigation/customizing the experience but so much more peaceful. If we can get more AEW announcements here as to upcoming matches and the like then Twitter might be a thing of the past. Although also hoping some of my sports friends might consider the move here.
It’s like living in a 💩 part of town next to oil refineries. Then you move to this beautiful brownstone, in a vibrant community, w/ its own community garden, where they show movies outside on Saturday nights!! 🙂 Fuck Sissy SpaceX !!!
Yeah man, really positive first 4/5 days. Enjoying being present in the enjoyable experience it’s been so far rather than worrying too much about what obstacles may be ahead
I've never been much of a poster on social media but it certainly feels easier to make more of an effort of that on here. Endlessly scrolling is also a nicer experience here. 😁
Absolutely loving it! It’s been like pulling teeth trying to get engagement on there! Here, it feels a bit more rewarding! And, people here are A LOT cooler!
It warms my heart to read all of the responses here. I've been only on Bluesky for a bit over a year now, with minimal wrestling content, but it was almost always positive (block function is amazing). I'm so happy you all *finally* made it here.
Going over there you just get hit with a wave of hate and anger. Didn't realise how bad it was until now. This reminds me of Twitter back when it was fun and before Elon buggered it up

Granted our news is NOTHING compared to the states right now lol.
Also probably dangerous cos it was nice not scrolling all day 😂
Couldn’t have happened at a better time tbh.
im loving it here.

Now I’m here full time.
Does it ever get dark here....?

Much quieter
The community is great. No ads, no bots. Positivity all around.
How's it been for you?
@justlucy.bsky.social is here so I can “talk” 😜 about her Britishness
So……
