So I’ve been on BSky for a few weeks now - what’s the verdict? My time on X has reduced to 1 visit per week for last 3 weeks with very little interaction on it. I’m not on BSky nearly as much as I used to be on X. I don’t find the post Wrexham match discussions as busy. So, do I go back to X? - ThreadSky

So, do I go back to X?

I’m going to be patient with it, I remember when I first started on Twitter…this platform isn’t going to be twitter and doesn’t need to be Twitter

I miss the engagement but it’s getting better here and will take time. I can’t go back to Twitter it’s a cesspit. I deleted it off my phone and check on desktop every now and then.

Classic growing pains of a newly adopted platform

I've seen many big accounts already go back to X due to the lack of audience and I think sadly more will go back where they've got the bigger and established audience

Unless X disappears it's highly unlikely this will overtake it

I think you may be wrong about that. Guess we will all see.

anniewxm.bsky.social•117 days ago

It's interesting because I've seen opposite reports. More engagement even with substantially fewer followers here.

silentbazz.bsky.social•117 days ago

Yeah, support Space Karen, that's the future 👍

Think it will take time for Bsky to establish itself,I know what you mean about having a sneaky look on twitter especially after a game because there is more on it,be helpful if the club came on here

garethcollins.bsky.social•117 days ago

I know what you mean but Rome wasn't built in a day. The club could post updates on here without extra work using apps/services like Openvibe/Croissant/Buffer/Yup that allow you to share a single post on multiple social networks. I guess in the meantime its up to us until critical mass is reached.

we need the club to start posting all their stuff on here ... hopefully as more people join accounts like the @fidpod.bsky.social guys will start doing their post match chats on there ( although I understand why they do it on the other place as they have a lot more followers on there)

robjj.bsky.social•117 days ago

If the club started doing all their updates on here, I'm at the point where I'd be happy to delete X now

timhugs59.bsky.social•117 days ago

And me

mcc41e.bsky.social•117 days ago

That would help. I was surprised with how quick my following grew, although not quite the size of my twitter - but I had been on that for like a decade. Spaces would be good on BSky

I deactivated my account yesterday after 11 years. I feel good about it as I pretty much spend all my time on here.

taithpeldroed.bsky.social•117 days ago

My main focus is Welsh football stuff and given how slow clubs were to even post regularly on X I suspect they'll be slow to leave. So I'm still there and probably will be until the critical mass shifts here. I do expect that to happen, but juggling more than one in the meantime.

anniewxm.bsky.social•117 days ago

I believe it will come, but we can't expect it's the same right away. We need more of both Wrexham and the other clubs fans for the discussions and banter. They are make their way over. Several of the opposition podcasts and fans are here so it's a matter of time

anniewxm.bsky.social•117 days ago

I also agree that it would be great for the club to join. That would help massively.
For me, personally, there's no going back. However much fun the footie part was, the rest of that place became unbearable and it's just not worth it.
