Canadian here: I had just joined Bluesky today.

I’m an old lady and still trying to navigate this.
Never did twitter-
too many twist.

Twits not twist.

Start following people—lots. Join feeds and start posting! You are basically the algorithm here, and curate your own experience.

l-aloisio.bsky.social•106 days ago

I was wondering if I would get mistaken for a bot if I immediately started clicking and following people on here? I only made one post so far.

micropainter.bsky.social•106 days ago

On BlueSky, people are wary of bots—so have a profile pic and description, and starting posting and following and joining feeds! Aldo search for starter packs where you can follow lots of people all at once—you can also ask to be added to a starter pack or create your own. Good luck! It’s fun here.

It’s fun and people don’t tolerate bs.
Love it♥️🦋

What does a starter pack look like? I'm not sure how to search for one without knowing what it looks like on Bluesky.

3sides.bsky.social•90 days ago

They show up in blue squares.
They say “starter pack” for different movements.

Go into settings and you can choose topics you’re interested in.

I block anyone who has no real profile, no posts or replies. So far so good!

It’s good you did that to secure your page ❤️

I don’t have a bio because I don’t have an interest in anyone getting to know me but I have a lot of fight in me at the moment and I’m very worried about my fellow trans folk.

3sides.bsky.social•90 days ago

Maybe add a trans flag.

Alberta's premier passed anti-trans legislation that targets trans school children--many of us who are allies are fighting it. She's also revealed herself as a Trump fangirl quisling to all of Canada.

electriconi.bsky.social•117 days ago

You should watch the film “where’s my Roy cohen” it’s about trumps mentor. Pretty enlightening but it doesn’t justify the sociopathic behavior or his sycophants.
