Just after the election, someone on r/Dropout posted a starter pack for all the Dropout cast members & guests. I'd deleted Twitter over a year ago, had wanted to try Bluesky, the starter pack of some of my favorite positive celebs made it easy.

To be honest, I always felt like the memes and comedy on twotter wasn’t really replicated on other sites I would visit. I don’t know what it is, but I always found this format great for the humor I enjoy. Twotter just stopped showing me enjoyable content and I felt the user was getting horrible

Same! I already had an account but I hadn’t used the app until now. That video got me over here too :)

Two reasons:
1: that same video
2: "someone" made a cool starter pack of dropout people to follow.

It's clear that Bluesky is where the future is and that X so isn't.

Twitter being awful. I joined Bluesky at launch with the intention of fully switching over eventually, and pulled the trigger and deleted my X Formerly Twitter after the election.

most social media sites make me feel ill but I still yearn to share my art and thoughts online and I heard this place was good for that :)) glad to report that the people saying so were very correct!
