I now have had too many moments where I open twitter, stop, immediately close the app, and open Bluesky instead.
Like there are now very little reasons to check Twitter anymore tbh. And I deeply love that for me π

Itβs ok tho! I just get to ignore it and post there only in a blue moon!

I did so about a year ago, but every so often Iβm tempted to go back and peek in to see how bad itβs gotten.
Iβm still on Facebook though, and itβs getting pretty bad there too. I can only imagine how much work twitter is.
But agreed itβs just bad. So is FB for me too. Just honestly grateful for alternatives
The most Important three words: "I Don't Know."
Too many too often seem to forget...
I will concede, though, that "Block" is quickly becoming one of my favorite words... π
Hugs!
Okay, I'm out. Byeee!

Like this is just me posting a personal experience and preference, go fight somewhere else! Feels good lol
Itβs like a weight off my shoulders. So much more peaceful.
I mean Iβm not complaining. Blue sky seems pretty cool

1. Move the Bluesky app to your phone Home Screen
2. Bury the Twitter app in that folder you hate
3. Let muscle memory do the rest
And Iβm sure itβll get weird on here too in some other ways. But the immediate block and mute culture, mixed in with block buttons that properly work?? It feels good to have that agency back.

No cable news
No Twitter
Pure bliss and serenity
I do regret being able to peak over there but it wouldnβt be worth the value.
Even ONE spot to the right was enough muscle memory to work wonders.
Ask your self this, would you have stopped never the less if bluesky didn't exist?
How times SURE have changed...

Thereβs a part of me that still misses early 2022 Twitter, but Bsky has been really nice so far

The active users R dropping rapidly
The advertisers will π w/ no one watching
Even the rangers that remain are losing interest w/ noone 2 bully
Keep the account so no one tries 2 steal UR persona thoughπ

Glad we got solid alternatives tbh
I love that for you too. Do what makes you feel fulfilled!
Once you spend some
time here the work of the algorithm there is obvious and obnoxious.
BTW Iβve been following your work on AI & how it affects artists. Do you or anyone know if there a starter pack or list of artists and advocates that I can find here to make adding similar people in the field easier?
1. This one by @parismarx.com of folks who are critical of tech

2. This one by @arteesetica.bsky.social a hispanic advocacy group built by artists. They got one for activists and experts thatβs solid https://bsky.app/profile/arteesetica.bsky.social/post/3lbuq6ggnss25

Tho also, Iβll still use it the same way I use FB now. Occasional announcements, extremely rare posts and thatβs about it.
Here, I'm motivated to draw again.
Xitter is dystopian 24/7/366.
neeeeevr returning!
Still learning my way around
It's a force of habit, but very glad that I have some place else to visit that is not a hellhole full of angry bots.
Also bluesky has my puppy on it so obviously better π€£
Life is hard especially now for alot of people and if I can make one person laugh/smile than it was all worth it to me.
That earns you a follow
A week later, I reinstalled for 20 minutes. That was enough to demonstrate that uninstalling was the right call.
I'll delete my account soon so I don't have to check it anymore, I'm waiting for even more artists joining.

Jokes aside i still have important connections and contacts over there. Good for me tho, theyβre all moving out here. In time, itβll just gather dust, outside of the once a few months announcement if at all
