What’s crazy it’s still very small there’s only 21 million people here. But there’s more active users than on threads which has 275 million.
Imagine if Bluesky in a year or so is as large as Twitter once was. It’s going to be INSANE
I think a lot of us are on edge from how Twitter was and are just more cautious about who is following us. Already had to block quite a few accounts related to hate or trolling and not the fun kind of trolling
That's a legit concern. I think that staying vigilant is healthy, even with the optimism surrounding bsky. Thankfully I managed to avoid any hate speech. I have a few NSFW accounts following me (such as NSFW video gamedevs), but that is something I'm fine with.
Yeah similar for me, I have a feed just to see what my followers are up to as well. Most of my followers seem like chill awesome people.
This place is growing so fast it’s insane and it’s so cool to be early to the platform
I think it reached its sweet spot when the Brazilians arrived. This new wave is bringing too many politics for my taste. They’re bringing the baggage from the other site.
but the great thing here is you have the tools to mute or block politics if you find it boring. I only needed to train the algorithm and mute a couple of users and now I only see one liners and politics: no pets, no sports, no food, no sex workers, no holiday snaps. works for me.
