Or would it actually be “hate to beat a dead bird”? lol

razzlebrry.bsky.social•107 days ago

OOP 🙈😂

mystifiedswift.swifties.social•107 days ago

hi friend!! we’re mutuals on twitter :)

mitzil.bsky.social•107 days ago

Same here

ullifo.swifties.social•107 days ago

same!! and i haven't been on twitter in a while but when you go back to it after a break you truly see how toxic and awful it is over there now. this feels sooooo different

jillking.bsky.social•107 days ago

do I have permission to use your post as example to convince my twitter peeps to come over here?
it's such a true sentiment. ☺️

tisthepamseason.bsky.social•107 days ago

of course!! :)

jillking.bsky.social•107 days ago

👍🏽

pollyinthetrees.swifties.social•107 days ago

and people asking to use your post??? basically unheard of in twitter world

not2worry.bsky.social•107 days ago

Swiftie on board. Imagine how quickly #BlueSky would grow, if TSwift deactivated/exited frmr T’witter & came to #BlueSky that would be as big as the #ErasTour. Anyways, Following U. Done ✅ Hope that u follow back.

jamipatton.bsky.social•107 days ago

Yes, especially after the past few weeks. I’ve been here than 24 hours and the stark contrast is amazing. Here I’m smiling, enjoying myself. On the other app, I was banging my head against the wall.

guyscreamingatsink.bsky.social•107 days ago

Definitely much better than twitter. That place is a racist right wing echo chamber.

ionjames.bsky.social•107 days ago

Same 🙂

easythcygo.swifties.social•107 days ago

I agree! i always got tense from twt reply notifs because I was worried someone was going to be rude. i don’t feel that here.

ssvdh.bsky.social•107 days ago

this is quickly becoming my happy place !

blackdog.swifties.social•107 days ago

YES

lilacshortskrt.swifties.social•107 days ago

No for real, this app feels like having a whole group of friends in my phone! The other app kinda feels like trying to talk to someone on the opposite side of an angry crowd. It's really stressful 😬

itguy1138.bsky.social•107 days ago

Oh no worries as someone who finally made the journey from the bad place about two days ago when he changed something and the junk tripled. It’s very peaceful here and deactivated my bad place account.

odaaj.bsky.social•107 days ago

Same, it really was the bad place over there

yasminastreet.swifties.social•107 days ago

another thing I don’t miss is the whole “this amount of people saw your tweet” statistic because made me so insecure.

yasminastreet.swifties.social•107 days ago

same!

illicitveniceb.bsky.social•107 days ago

i love blue sky so much everyone is so kind, but sometimes i still get that anxiety w/ notifs just out of habit.

messofadreamer.swifties.social•107 days ago

I feel like this is what social media is supposed to be like!! I go away from the app feeling happy and excited bc I got to check in and see how moots days are going and it’s all so easy and positive and soooo much better for my mental health and everyone is chill 🥹

imanigetup.bsky.social•107 days ago

exactly this!! i noticed that i feel so drained after being on twitter for any length of time, and that i'm always on my guard because of drama within the fandom and randoms being needlessly hateful. i have to block someone new every single time i log on, it's so refreshing not to have to do that 😂

thatguyyouhate6111.bsky.social•107 days ago

Now we need to try and help to keep it this way.

ofantastic.bsky.social•108 days ago

i woke up to 60 new notifications and was just smiling the whole time because it was just all of my oomfs interacting with me 😭😭 without ads and bots between everything

tisthepamseason.bsky.social•108 days ago

right and not a hateful message in sight 😭 i was perpetually worried the wrong people would perceive me over there

tupperwareverse.swifties.social•108 days ago

It’s just so happy here.

lucy2.bsky.social•107 days ago

And...that has been part of their plan all along. To have the masses arguing, being fed misinformation and lies. All part of the fucking control. I am sick of it. I'm 70 and I voted not for me but the youth.

lucy2.bsky.social•107 days ago

It is interesting how so many are afraid to leave that cesspool of toxicity. But being in a bad relationship, or a funk is more comforting than the unknown. The difference here is like that of The National Enquirer and National Geographic, right?

pjc105.swifties.social•107 days ago

Twitter turned into literal hell as soon as musk bought it. It's nice to have a non toxic space and scape from the madness of other social media

sumsumfosho.bsky.social•107 days ago

I was just thinking that this morning. I haven’t had my Twitter notifs on for years lol

pollyinthetrees.swifties.social•107 days ago

i think we forget how much the twitter algorithm promoted toxicity

jesssamer1cana.swifties.social•107 days ago

Omg honestly same I would dread looking at twitter even after not checking in days and notifs have been off for MONTHS but gimme allllll the notis from 🦋

flox.swifties.social•108 days ago

Maybe unpopular opinion but I like that the notif icon caps at 30+
Makes it less overwhelming when I open the app hihi

tisthepamseason.bsky.social•108 days ago

yeah the caps are very nice!! i was always at 20+ and 20+ there and it was never ending. here the 30+ is just normal people being nice hahaha

kalab.bsky.social•107 days ago

Just commenting to give you a popup and improve your day a little. :3 hope you're doing good!

tisthepamseason.bsky.social•107 days ago

this is so sweet, i hope you’re having a great day!!!! 💗

jennifance.bsky.social•107 days ago

I feel the same! I still have push notifications on and they are constant and I kind of love it? 😊🩵

tisthepamseason.bsky.social•107 days ago

right like hundreds of ur closest swiftie friends just want to remind you to drink water and have a good day what’s not to love

babeforthewkend.swifties.social•107 days ago

omg u made it here 🫶🏼

thelittleoutsider.joshler.top•107 days ago

i deleted the twitter app from my phone and now I use the browser version only to download fandom stuff that isn't on bluesky yet.

ganielgoose.bsky.social•107 days ago

Not even just notifs but just the whole atmosphere is so much more different

Here it feels more like you're in a rural town/small city with tight knit community. Whereas Twitter it's more like a divided large city
