happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!
with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

And, I am LOVING Blue Sky, waaaay better than TwiX.
Any chance of having groups come, as in the ability to form groups?
Yes it's a rhetorical question.
You have been a lifesaver!!!
Thank you!
I love you, BlueSky, for giving me ✌️ and freedom of speech
Go back to kissing traitor Elon's butt and enjoy spewing ignorance and bs.
Sane, fact posting, common sense people are on here. Bluesky will continue to grow and over take garbage spreading X.
😎👋
I've had to block so many it's starting to feel like xwitter.
Now didn’t her mother ever teach her that?
when you use an older population consistently for a bunch of "old fucker" jokes and slurs it's maybe not funny anymore--

Trump issued new android.
This is ableism. I am artistic!
It does not work !!!
There is also "Hide post for me" but it only hides that particular post. And finally there is "Block the account".
my apologies for the confusion.
What does that mean - they don't know about it? I mean, people can pretty much figure out they've been blocked.
I can mute. I don't see them. If they respond to me, I see SOMEONE I've muted has responded. I can choose to look, or not.
They don't know. Seems soft.
tbf I can lose followers just by being my sweet self 🤔
A well-timed 9-11 joke will do the trick.

I am grateful for this space 💙
Making the letter limit more than 300 letters/moving the limit entirely would be a nice way to celebrate it! Hint, hint. 🥹😉
I remember.
Awesome.
Of course I would always love italics, but I’m pretty sure we’re not gonna ever get those…
Here is a dinosaur
I had no idea lol!
I'm more than 1 year old, though lol!
I was so happy to have an opportunity to join this beautiful social network without an invite code. Thank you for all your hard work🦋
You’ll get a whole feed of your saved posts.
Followed back.

Blue Sky!
Made my first post today 🎉
Thank you!
If you want to write a screed in one box, you have options. Stay on zombie Twitter. Go over to Facebook. See if your MySpace account still works. Start your own blog. Etc. etc.
When you begin a post, there’s a + sign, click on it and it will extend more space to post your thoughts and ideas. Hope this helps.
remember how when we registered on here we were asked our interests?
any chance we can change that in our settings?
i may have opted 4 “politics” expecting geopolitics
but instead iʼm flooded w/ posts abt LOCAL politics from another country 😂😂
i want to make it stop lol
TIA 🙏🙏
How cool is that

Bluesky has restored some of that power for me, or rather, has allowed me a new way to express it.
Thanks Bluesky, and Happy Birthday 🎂!
The 60+ community deserves better, too!
I deleted my Facebook, Instagram, Threads and Messenger this morning! Bluesky is my only Social Media account!
Stay real and stay BLUE! 🥳🦋🎂🎉

that's why fascists are bored. Return to X
Come with us, girl💗
Since far-right maniac owns X and supports mysoginia, hatespeech, corruption and totality I cannot see X interesting anymore.

Those that don't listen to us who lived through it before will FAFO!
I'm so glad you're here.

Thank you for this safe platform 🥳
This is what they abuse to spread defamation without you as a original poster can see it. I hope you understand now. I have a hard time explaining it better.
Thankfully I haven't come across that issue in about a month or two.
Blocking prevents interaction. When you block an account, both you and the other account will no longer be able to see or interact with each other’s posts.

There. Fixed it for ya.
Been here a while, think its better than the other blue dude
Ableism and ageism contribute to this disturbing trend where people think it's better to be hidden away in bed, or dead, than disabled.
Your response shows that you are unaware of ageism and ableism, and that you are not old or disabled and eligible for doctor assisted death instead of supports that would help you live.
Where you live, are you eligible for MAiD or doctor assisted death by another name, while being denied adequate support to live?
A meme like this promotes ageism and ableism, and there's a current global push to legalize doctor assisted death for disabled and/or old people who need help, instead of providing access to care.
Due to the global push to legalize medically provided deaths to disabled & old people (instead of the supports needed to live in dignity), I find images like this actually perpetuate the ageism and ableism that make many people think it's better to be dead than disabled.
They’re trying, please give them some grace.
Now if only we could get rid of the crypto gurus, wannabe porn stars and ho's that pounce on all the new accounts and dogpile them with unsolicited messages. 🙄
🥳🥳🥳
Thank you to Team Bluesky!

Like this gif, of a man throwing money around. Seems harmless at first, but the root of this gesture is from stripclubs.
Also memes used of men crying at their most vulnerable. like Michael Jordan or will smith.
I hope I'm not wrong.
Ageism is one of those prejudices that many people who consider themselves as inclusive, still maintain.
How are you doing?
Hope that all is well with you and that you have been able to navigate through any challenges that may come your way. Look forward to reconnecting with you soon.
I joined two months ago, and it’s been a great experience.
It's a solid meme that mocks ageists if used right

But it is utterly tempting is it not?
Apparently people need to be reminded that Meta supports The Oligarchy and that includes Instagram.
Each person will decide where they draw a line.
Recently deleted my IG biz sadly 😔
I gave up FB biz account years ago for 2016 election interference and ⤵️⤵️
