Seems like something big is happening here...

Do you think it will last? Threads was fun for a day or two. I'm hoping this is different.

Fingers crossed but the hopium tanks are critically low atm

probsexe.daliban.social•106 days ago

thats right #dggL

libpol.org•106 days ago

it'll very likely fizzle out within about a week but there'll be more and more surges over time

it'll probably take about 3 - 5 years before this place starts getting really serious traction and traffic

bestbudz.bsky.social•105 days ago

I like it here. Tried threads, and it felt weird. This one feels better.

daggerdan.info•106 days ago

It'll last alright

tylercsm.bsky.social•106 days ago

There was a post on Destiny's subreddit that has a mass follow list when you sign up. A bunch of us signed up, and you are on the auto-follow list.

slippin.bsky.social•106 days ago

Yeah I wonder how many of the new followers I got in a day are bots, and also want to know how this platforms intend to deal with bot farms. But I imagine the moderation of this platform is much better than twitter.

gathererold.bsky.social•106 days ago

you’re part of a “pack” of accounts that was created by DGG, for DGG so that anyone who joins here to leave X can have a base of people to follow immediately on the platform

oddityninetwo.bsky.social•106 days ago

Thats how I found out IRI was on here.

gathererold.bsky.social•106 days ago

king shit

tbirding.bsky.social•104 days ago

You need to follow back, though.

hadeswept.bsky.social•106 days ago

I hope it sticks around, for a while at least. I actually want to use it. I'm never going back to X.

wixyz.bsky.social•106 days ago

WEIRD seeing myself in there.

kejey.bsky.social•106 days ago

Now we need to get Steven on here

athanatos154.bsky.social•106 days ago

Bluesky has been increasing in traffic constantly for the last month
Creators also seem to get better engagement for the followers they have

I'm confident it will last
The only thing that can stop it is problems with monetization imo

darkpumpkin21.bsky.social•106 days ago

Never made a Twitter or a threads but here I am

marlborotheman.bsky.social•105 days ago

I see myself in an IRI post. I am now famous.

kidrik.bsky.social•106 days ago

It's really just a portion of the Daliban arriving. The motivated percentage of D's audience is the highest of probably any influencer

cosmicgrim.bsky.social•106 days ago

Feels a bit different but who knows. Threads was more about the novelty of a new app being released. Bluesky has been out for a while now but people hate twitter and Musk so they come here

queer-phoenix.bsky.social•106 days ago

They allow porn on here so I assume it’ll have a better shot at retaining engagement. It’s how VHS tapes ultimately won over the other option

megalarge.bsky.social•106 days ago

n3rv.bsky.social•106 days ago

If you build it they will come. Just keep at it, you'll get there.

thatsprettydank.bsky.social•106 days ago

Typical glass half full IRI

qkachoo.bsky.social•106 days ago

I honestly prefer Threads but that is because I am a big instagram user. So having the cross pollination is very convenient. This seems pretty sleek though.

sarah-86.bsky.social•106 days ago

It feels good here, I hope it lasts and becomes bigger than twitter.

captivegoat.bsky.social•105 days ago

Im hoping so. It's just better.

blancoflaco91.daliban.co•106 days ago

This app needs to catch up on features quickly if they want to retain people. Never thought I'd have an account, but here I am. Looks like there's a lot more like me out here.

devdogra.bsky.social•106 days ago

Oh yeah, Democracy if you can keep it

devdogra.bsky.social•106 days ago

Anti-fascism is happening

glavkoverkh.bsky.social•102 days ago

Threads died because it was just anti-twitter.

Hopefully bluesky makes something for itself

classyneurotic.bsky.social•104 days ago

When are you going to start following people?

mellojello100.bsky.social•106 days ago

I think so, this feels like twitter with out all the BS. I've been liking it so far.

ravaen1.bsky.social•106 days ago

I feel like the election will make the break away from Twitter a lot more possible, a lot of emotion and hatred towards Twitter can be funnelled into building a better social media forum.

Hopefully that let's Bluesky take off!

deevious-s.bsky.social•106 days ago

I'm desperate for this to be different. Twitter is a hell world.

a-shoelace.bsky.social•106 days ago

Lemmy and Kbin didn't fare particularly well, if they're any indication of trying to break from the status quo.

accountabilityhub.bsky.social•105 days ago

Always felt like the threads UI wasn't as good. First time being here and the app is super fast, website even moreso.

Here's hoping!

dume85.bsky.social•105 days ago

Already more followers than tiny pog

rayrod20.bsky.social•105 days ago

Lets make it happen

toomanyyikes.bsky.social•106 days ago

Threads is run by Facebook. Ain’t no way im spending time there.

unleashedgohan.bsky.social•106 days ago

You should feel hopeful IRI. Because bluesky has been slowly growing before this boom, there is already a culture and people are going to love it. I have been waiting to engage and I am going all in now. To keep the streak going, engage, reply to people and lets humiliate Elon Musk together

trueblueviews.bsky.social•106 days ago

Based

noel95.bsky.social•106 days ago

Idk if it's gonna last, but I'm certainly not going back to that 4chan clone Musk is building.

systematic-sean.bsky.social•106 days ago

Hey IRI huge fan and glad you're here! Wanted to let you know it's showing on my end that your handle is invalid? Didn't want ya to miss out on people being able to find you from the DGG verse!
