Democracy Docket has Bluesky share buttons and Bluesky has become critical to DD's growth. https://www.democracydocket.com

Reposted from Josh Marshall

Fascinating how having Bluesky share button has become a symbol of a pub's proximity to Team Elon. NYT, AP, Guardian, TPM have it. WaPo, WSJ, Politico, Axios do not.

Notable thing is that Bluesky has much higher engagement rates, even agst a small smaller user base, at least in nominal terms.

Yeah, apparently coal miners are crying about Trump’s policy is hurting them and causing him to lose their jobs. I have zero sympathy. They voted for this.

Beyond a shadow of a doubt, this is where America’s most politically engaged 10 million Blue peeps are hanging.

It (BlueSky) really is a magical wonderland.

Still waiting to see the promised Unicorns, though.

BlueSky and Substack are the bastions of the resistance. The legacy media have, in the main, bent the proverbial knee. One should hope all democrat politicians would establish presences here.

Marc, I realize that the answer to this question might have cost you some work. Why is it that the United States legal system is so weak and ineffectual that it can't prevent a felon from running for office? The French can do it, why can't the United States?

Funny how having a social media site filled with real people works to improve engagement.

Being able to self moderate is the best IMHO. Reddit sucks ass in comparison. Your comment's fate is up to some unqualified user's discretion, which can lead to being massively annoyed and loss of service. I quit Twitter long ago, I haven't been on Reddit since joining Bluesky before the election.

penguinguynz.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’ve never used Reddit. I barely understand what it is save for funny bits making it to YouTube like AITA.

rudedawg.bsky.social•4 days ago

You're not missing anything in my opinion. I found it quite annoying, and the UI is undesirable to me.

Thank God for Democracy Docket and Bluesky.😎

Damn Marc, just dropping bangers for months now

You and your team of soldiers for democracy and others of your stripe are going to save this country, if it still can be

Cool!
How do we get them to remove the other two? Fuck Facebook and fuck Twitter.

I wouldn’t exactly call The Guardian ‘team Elon’ as he hates them, they’re quite critical of trump too.

Although it is puzzling why there’s no Bluesky button.
