Don't be shy cos we're pretty much all good people.
Use feeds to find things you're interested in. Jump into convos we happily accept and chat away. Watch out for reply guys (block on sight) and enjoy.
Think of it as a coffee shop - chill, chat and fun. Oh and its not twitter and never will be.
People muppets that is. We all of us love actual muppets obviously.
One of the coolest features is including alt text on images for visually impaired/blind etc. you can set it up to remind you with each post & I love it!
No algorithms here so don’t be shy - find Feeds you’re interested in (on your bio page you’ll see Feeds - you can search for topics which specifically interest you eg #LawSky but also search keywords & see what comes up)
The key, I’ve found, is to follow people with abandon
All of the above suggestions, also set your content as per s/s otherwise you may find you wake up to a feed of 🍆- I kid you not, there's a section of BS that's allowed and "interesting".
Excellent- thanks for the help on the settings. It looks so much like twitter. In the end on there I found learning stuff about places / people better than trying to interact with others.
Hello! With a bit of luck you’ll find people you followed on the other site. Many of us have used names that are either the same or very similar to the Twitter ones. I found several of my old crowd through # The Archers!

We had feeds only initially & now # here too, which has been a TRIP! GIFs were demanded but in use less often that expected.
Mute and block liberally. Large section of us who loved Twitter are determined to protect bluesky from toxicity & muppets.

Hope you’re having fun getting settled.
