Totally get this! I do t feel the need to hold my breath or nose when I open this app. Peace, love Canada

Great to see you on here!

shakenbake326.bsky.social•91 days ago

I followed you here....it is a
nice place so be comfortable being yourself.

toast2hawks.bsky.social•91 days ago

You were a bright spot on the other site. Glad you are over here!

You are a national treasure and I'm so grateful that you are here! 🇨🇦

maj0rmattmas0n.bsky.social•91 days ago

I feel as if a warm blanket of Canadian snow has entered my world! I left the Xitter some time ago. I missed your company. I embrace you. But from a distance. An e-hug. Nothing too personal, after all.

panamstyle.bsky.social•91 days ago

Good to see you here.

Darling.

I could make a nonsensical parallel between some random thing you say and the bible and when you respond "?" call you a homophobic slur if it makes you feel more twitterish.

I'm a helper

evyhasrisen.bsky.social•91 days ago

I had this problem for an hour, before I realized that nobody actually responds to trolls. And if they do, they end up muting them. Trolls have no audience here. Its relaxing.

Skittishstar. 🤩

tedtheodorou.bsky.social•91 days ago

I heard all of this in a British accent, the word skittish triggered it. 🤣

briansconverse.bsky.social•91 days ago

Oh, yeah? Well you just have a nice day, mister.

buglady.bsky.social•91 days ago

Well in our household we love your videos and social media posts, so welcome to Bluesky!

theterroirist.bsky.social•91 days ago

It's definitely been a culture change.

You mean I DON'T need to address all their clearly bad-faith debate points? I can just block and move on?

Oh, how lovely.

evyhasrisen.bsky.social•91 days ago

And if they want to "celebrate" their win because no one will "debate" them, let them. They're talking to themselves. Not even other trolls interact amongst each other.

franjo.us•91 days ago

Those curated block lists have been ✨GLORIOUS✨

theterroirist.bsky.social•91 days ago

I haven't used them myself yet. There's not enough checks and balances for my liking since they're all just controlled by a single person who (almost always) I don't personally know.

But I'm glad that they work for other folk!

franjo.us•91 days ago

Fair, you do have to settle for someone else's good will. But, honestly, one of the main reasons I move here to get away from MAGAts, and I'm okay with blocking them by default here as well.

plannedtheride.bsky.social•91 days ago

If there's a tiny glitch here, my heart stops. Anticipating a senseless suspension, time out.
Twitter's punitive nature did that to me.

You'll need a new potato chip eating GIF but a skittish Canadian X refugee peering out the window into Blue sky expecting trolls and idiots, only to see nice comments and so many cat pics.

brs-ray.bsky.social•91 days ago

Where does one find one's user #?

brittlestar.com•91 days ago

I found mine at SkyZoo. If you google that you may find the link

brs-ray.bsky.social•91 days ago

Thanks.

referee1759.bsky.social•91 days ago

You're a good person, and many truly enjoy your commentary. Myself included!

callmelg.bsky.social•91 days ago

I’m glad we’re here together - I have a fondness for those who I associate with relieving some covid shutdown despair. And I loved meeting your mom!

hopefulwish.bsky.social•91 days ago

Really appreciate your comments and humour. I notice I’m seeing more of your posts now than I ever did on the dark side. Welcome to the 🦋😊

paula4always.bsky.social•91 days ago

Love having you here! 😁

indyfromspace.bsky.social•91 days ago

I'm a Mainer married to a proud Canadian, so, thank you very much for your wonderful humor and kindness and all around awesomeness.

snoid.bsky.social•91 days ago

I was about #1,000,050 or so...anther old-timer!

radbaron.bsky.social•91 days ago

And... already blocked one Xitter nut from your replies. But they'll never know.

gogglespaesan0.bsky.social•91 days ago

I love that you fearlessly call yourself a “darling”. Bold and refreshing… and rather darling.

davidmosseylib.bsky.social•91 days ago

Have a great day

lizwhitmere.bsky.social•91 days ago

Isn’t it lovely?

dianeblais.bsky.social•91 days ago

You should spend more time here and less in that other place. So far, it’s much nicer here.

204queenb0574.bsky.social•91 days ago

I rarely go back to X. When I do, it's to do another round with Sky Follower Bridge or see what nonsense others have posted to my previous posts. I am going to delete it before the year is out.

dianeblais.bsky.social•91 days ago

I deactivated my account and deleted the app from all of my devices a couple of weeks ago. I haven’t looked back.
