“Bluesky is boring there’s so much more happening on Twitter” yeah cause the Twitter algorithm is designed to flood you with absolute garbage designed to keep you hooked. If bluesky is boring maybe you guys just aren’t following enough people
I don’t post here as often but it’s SO much calmer here and I feel better casually scrolling on here
I’ll take it “being boring” over nazi propaganda any day
A while ago Facebook found out they could increase user engagement by flooding your feed with rage-inducing content, which is why it became known for shitty uncle-politics (aka racism).
Elon probably realized this too and tweaked the Twitter algorithm to also boost racism, AI, and rage bait posts
It’s so telling that ever since I abandoned that ship, I haven’t really seen much in the way of console or fandom wars. There’s still garbage takes here, but nothing like the people who’d tweet stuff like “Ocarina of Time is a bad game cause it doesn’t have loot boxes”
I legit had an addiction to that app late last year because of all the ragebait algorythm, and I mostly left it other than to see a few accounts not anywhere else (only their feed) and my life has been better.
kind of person that isn't happy if they're not getting 50k likes in every tweet (75% of those are bots)
like the shit I actually put some effort into actually gets some degree of attention in here while Twitter has only ever rewarded my slop posts
Like look at the diff lol
Extremely ironic that a comic book account complains about the app being “boring”. Comic book twitter is just endless stupid discourse and the revelation of a catfish scandal every 3 months. Bsky is waaaay better than that lmao
Lmaooo at least they admit they have a toxic addiction to arguing and fighting. But the “where are the people that just want to talk about comics” is HILARIOUS. No one in cbtwt wants to just talk about comics. They just want to hate and fight 😭
Besides from some things happening here, bluesky is just honestly much nicer than twitter which is falling apart due to a dickhead owning that site after the still awful rebrand.
And tbh, I feel like this site also kinda encourages taking a break from scrolling to do literally anything else after 5-10 minutes of scrolling. Maybe it's because I refuse to look at the Discover page but idk, this app is fine
I've gotten double or triple the engagement here when having half of my following that I do on twitter. That site is plagued with bots and racism among many other issues. Boohoo. You have to make your own algorithm here and its not tiktok fyp slop wah wah.

Like I'm happy not seeing drama and people arguing with one another about nonsense every 5 seconds on here
