I think I'm going to write about echo chambers this week.
One thing I'm thinking about is how Bluesky has, thus far, been naturally self-sorting.
We've seen lots of algorithimic sorting, usually based on the idea that we want to be around people like us. https://www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/agitated-clusters-of-comforting-rage

I don’t socialize with nazis and transphobes offline. Why would I be required to share my space or engage with them here?
The notion that you should have to put up with people and topics you don't care about is nonsense.
the entirety of the 'right' is nothing more than bad faith agenda driven bullsh*tters, and they will continually spam their bubble with nonsense that then leaks out into the normal world and becomes a daily discourse
which is their goal

It was, again, not a dig!
The echo chamber is just old fashioned shunning of the disreputable.
