BOY HAVE YOU GOT THAT RIGHT I HAVE BEEN LOCKED OUT SO MANY TIMES NOT BECAUSE OF FOULS OR ICKY POSTS BUT BECAUSE I TELL THE TRUTH AND SOMEONEEEEEE GETS ALL TICKED OFF :(
…for now? I have a feeling the billionaires are going to keep snapping up successful new media to keep feeding their ill-informed electorate Russian disinformation.
I love that I was able to have a political discussion, agree to disagree, and there was no name calling or general meanness. I love talking to people who have totally different opinions from me.
Exactly. This is why Blue Sky is the answer to the other places. So nice to see everyone coming over. We should be recruiting journalists from the major outlets as well as independent outlets. You can decide yourself who you want to follow, but they will give it an air of legitimacy.
TRUE. I'm weaning myself from Elmo's place. Most of my friends are here. It IS fun to watch some of the cult shills over there having a fit because they may not get EVERY last cracker crumb in the box.
Oops, I guess I can’t edit on here. I mean, I meant to say I say that while at the same time being completely devastated about the state of Elon and Trump and the future of the country the future of renewable energy and EV, etc.
I was hoping that blue sky could be an objective source of Tesla news and information without all the politics and negativity that goes along with X/Twitter. But I’m worried it’s just going to be extreme on the other end of the spectrum.
I get it. If I didn’t already own a Tesla, I might be in the same mindset. That said I think that my Tesla, at least from an energy efficiency and software standpoint is objectively better than a Volvo. I hate buying an inferior car, just to spite Elon, but I might have seriously considered it…
You’re the first person on blue sky I’ve seen say anything positive about Tesla & that kind of bothers me
I am as mad as anyone else about Elon and the election but I still think my Tesla is my favorite car I’ve ever owned. I’m annoyed that blue sky has a lot of misinformation about Tesla on it.
I agree. We need to be careful not to become the very thing we were trying to get away from. Misinformation and blanket hate should have no place here.
It's not "his tech." Musk purchased Tesla. He's also ruining it like he did Twitter. EVs may move humanity forward and save lives, but Tesla is increasingly just one more seller of EVs, and its latest is just...bad.
I'm new here. Can we talk about politics, or is 1 side of the aisle not recommended? I joined to avoid the brash comments of other apps. So I'd like to know beforehand.
YES!!! I found it most irritating that said billionaire was so intimately active on that platform. Strange, I never called it the alphabet letter, but I couldn’t refer to it by its origin name either.
I also like it as you don't get flooded with bots calling you every name in the book as now we know better than to give any troll the satisfaction of engagement.
Waiting on my Twitter archive before I deactivate...decided to check in last night just for s&g, and saw that one of my comments had 3 replies...but when I went to view them, I couldn't...X is an even more rapidly declining shithold platform. Good riddance...
They kind of cater to nobody at all and I think it's why Threads has terrible engagement. They made it impossible for anything interesting to blossom organically.
or rather I should say they were so committed to preventing people from using it for news and politics that they effectively made it impossible for anything at all to thrive there
Zuck also wrote an inflammatory letter to Congress before the election, alleging he was pressured into censorship and addressing misinformation during the Covid era, so there’s that pile of garbage.
Yep. I’m glad I haven’t seen any “you don’t deserve to live” stances being treated as equally as “we should all work together to make a better future for ourselves” stances.
I got suspended, brought back, and then formally suppressed within a couple of weeks of making this profile on Twitter.
Safe to say, it was a bit difficult to be heard over there. Lol
Im not a fan of politics but im glad you get the freedom to do that here if thats what you want to do.
This site by far one of the better ones these days. Rest these sites you see like threads, facebook, X, threads all apps I realized I didnt like to much
far as I know, the most imp thing you and I can do in the next month or two is:
Call Your US Senators and urge them to fill ALL open judgeships
honestly, what with GOP HOuse, this is our most important job
He has a huge compound and wants all his wives, mistresses, concubines and illegitimate children to ALL live on this compound Together. Also similar to polygamist, Warren Jeffs.
And you’re not giving that billionaire your content, his future plans to use said content to train his I’m sure diabolical AI and also taking away his advertising revenue.

Man, exactly this. I made a joke that a timely condom 78 years ago would have fixed all this, and no shadow banning, or throttling of my accounts reach. And no swarm of bot attacks! THIS is freedom of speech, not whatever Pasty Gollum was doing over there.
I am also Canadian. I am also a teacher who dared to support 2SLGBTQIA+ students. Few know like teachers how bad shit is going to get. Schools are political ground zero and the left doesn't pay ANY attention AT ALL, while the right devours.
The kids are not the problem, I am talking about parents and people who don't even have children in public education. I am talking about the POLITICS of schools. Again, they are ground zero. You want to know what the right is doing? They start at the school level.
Pas vraiment... car la migration des gens biens vers Bluesky a commencé. (et il ne restera plus que les haineux et les millions de faux-comptes et bots là-bas) 😉
C'est long de migrer et difficile de renoncer à abonnements et à ses suiveurs, il faut tout reprendre à zéro, pour ceux qui ont beaucoup de suiveurs c'est compliqué et ce peut être un sacrifice.
PS: je suis encore sur ex-Twitter, mais petit à petit ne poste plus là-bas, et même l'ouvre de moins en moins.
Je ne voulais pas être injurieux, mais plus un constat de ce vers quoi cette plateforme va.
It got so bad on TikTok that even refreshing the algorithm had my feed popping pro-Nazi, pro-Trump posts even with keyword filtering active. And god forbid you call out the bigotry.
Yeah & shoehorn diversionist rhetoric on a feed no one actually curated. What happened there became so obvious.. once Xelon announced how much xe was going to “donate” to that guy’s campaign, the buyout, the employee purge & all the changes created so much sad clarity.. was once the best platform
Same. It’s one of the reasons I haven’t taken to threads. The whole, we’re downgrading (or whatever) political posts. And Twitter is a dumpster fire. Glad I found you here.
I like Bluesky cause I get to like and repost a tweet and find that my like and reposts don’t magically disappear. It was rare that an anti Poilievre or a pro Trudeau tweet didn’t get erased.
Re X:
By shadow banning liberals & unfollowing our followers w/o our knowledge, I think Musk is trying to drive us out w/o violating his @Apple contract. Like when the new owner wants to drive out the low rent tenants, so he cuts their heat. X will become MAGAs ministry of propaganda.

I’m a pro-democracy American, focused on electing dems up and down the ballot.
Unbelievable
Wooooooo
Following.
Well I am brown you are not. But okay if I call you brother!

Hopefully there will be 1st amendment challenges

He was obviously the only person on twitter who could see it

The downside is, unless you’re popular, it’s the same old being ignored and dismissed. Billionaire or not, that hasn’t changed one iota
I could not factor in the sheer level of IDIOCY - that people would vote for AOC and Dump on the same ticket level of detached from reality.
Je ne voulais pas être injurieux, mais plus un constat de ce vers quoi cette plateforme va.
Also…the billionaire not getting to decide who sees it thing.
#BlueCrew
I only have 10 followers so maybe only 1 of them sees it, but at least his K-Holiness won't be able to censor it.
Quelle surprise…
