Huge win

I do feel like they could have snagged https://transitchicago.com as a handle at least

Looks like the SEPTA (Philly transit) is here https://bsky.app/profile/septaphilly.bsky.social

still on X, I primarily post accounts that leave Twitter for Bluesky, unless it's a massive account, like Obama (one day)

Nice!

Local authorities and local journalists are very important to expand BlueSky. Very many remain on Xshitter just to get local info and notifications!
Sports and music also. Outside of politics/econ/science moving to Bluesky is still chicken & egg issue

My main gripe is that vast number of established account on here still posting on Twitter, there are many of them that have more followers (or similar) here that still post there

Agree in principle but I don’t think it matters. To them it’s an issue of cumulative reach. More important is to get giga-accounts to also post here plus local accounts + sports. These are the ones to watch. Will make a big difference

@chicagocta.bsky.social is the official PR/info account
@ctaalerts.bsky.social is a fan-maintained alerts account in lieu of an official alerts account
