Now that it’s becoming popular, do you think bsky will replace X when Mastodon and Threads couldn’t? I know this has been around a while, but I’m curious if you guys will talk about it on ATP.
Mastodon made distributed systems an end-user dilemma, Threads lacked a chronological feed so was full of engagement farmers and anything political was buried. Bsky gives you 2010s-era Twitter but with some lessons learned.
Unfortunately, I think fediverse question of “how do I choose a server” was too big of a burden for most users. The community here is pretty great too.
I second this 1000%! I’d love to spend more time here, but the lack of timeline sync or even keeping my place in my timeline between app launches is infuriating.
I was also dying of this, @skeetsapp.com has position saving for wake ups, at least. Doesn’t seem to save the state persistently so you’ll be back at the top on cold launches, but still. Better than nothing.
@nitro230.bsky.social you can use Ivory with SkyBridge. It’s not perfect (biggest issue is no video) but it’s good enough for scrolling the feed: https://github.com/videah/SkyBridge

Welcome!
SkyBridge isn't the best to start with, and I honestly found the 1st party bluesky app better (for me)
