Yea, moving to bluesky is tough, cuz plenty of the people I follow and interact with aren't on here yet/won't move here. I wish we could keep Twitter, but it's become such a toxic cesspit filled with bits and extremist ads that it's nigh unusable. I Hate it.

having a platform that my money is so reliant upon be so volatile and constantly on a downward turn truly sucks!!!

I do femboy content on Twitter casually and I’ve literally made $0 off of it.
I’m not technically *losing* anything by not using Twitter, but I’ve still put a LOT of effort in to the stuff I’ve posted. 447 followers isn’t nearly as much as you but I’ve still put time and effort into getting there.

hoping another platform becomes just as bountiful for you <3 what's happened to birdsite fucking sucks :c

realamandarae.me•217 days ago

Feel this so hard. But you are so hot and people love you and they’ll follow again and we’ll get past this transition 💝

Tell me about it, I’m a promoter I literally sell posts on that place, I’ll try to bear as long as I can, but day by day we can see the engagement rates dropping and I believe it will drop more with the removal of the ‘blocking’ option

pierbi.bsky.social•218 days ago

god that sucks so much to hear :(

fun-caring-guy.bsky.social•198 days ago

Sorry to hear.

So glad I'm not in that situation.

malenabb.bsky.social•218 days ago

it’s genuinely so sad :(

femboyhami.bsky.social•217 days ago

its been so doomed even with good engagement

nomi-be.bsky.social•216 days ago

I followed you on Twitter and haven’t been on in over a year, so glad to see you here!

gwenxyz.bsky.social•217 days ago

Nowhere near the same as what you’re experiencing, but I feel it in my own way. I’ve been on Twitter since 2007, and am mourning the loss of the queer, creative, political, and nerd-centric connections I’ve made over there.

gwenxyz.bsky.social•217 days ago

The hellsite is taking a much more important part of my ‘community’ away than I (consciously) realised it had control over…

kiwicami.bsky.social•217 days ago

Yeah it sucks... i used to get some, not much but still some interactions but now its just zero

lollipop69.bsky.social•210 days ago

I know the feeling. It also feels like Twitter was the dominant site where you could find everyone.

Now 3 or 4 alternatives have appeared and are fighting over the body of Twitter leaving everything fragmented.

augustmoore.bsky.social•217 days ago

I feel you on that, not only did I start (restart) Twitter too late, now I'm trying to restart on a platform where I can't be nude... idk where to go 🙃

jaybaesun.bsky.social•212 days ago

Honestly so insane that it without failure has gotten worse and worse every week. You would think there might be an attempt at improving it

ashke-le-bambi.bsky.social•212 days ago

I honestly feel you sis 🥺 scared everything i built is at risk, im glad the fans will support us through it all, love uu 🩷🌸

wrench.bsky.social•217 days ago

I was in a similar place and i still sort of am, but we’ll rebuild! I think that the blocks were the nail in the coffin for almost everyone, so i think a lot of people are moving over :p I’m always happy to follow u back though <3

chi-is-a-mess.bsky.social•218 days ago

i guess its good to at least start building up on other alternatives just in case shit really hits the fan on twitter

itzfxkincammi.bsky.social•218 days ago

It truly is, and I’m a newbie, i cant imagine being entrenched and having to realize that…

stephsnotfluffy.bsky.social•218 days ago

genuinely same. it doesn't seem worth moving

bootystar.bsky.social•218 days ago

Not sure what to do except try to start over and hope most of my followers make the jump
