He probably doesn't need to tweet in favour.

Particularly shameful is the post from @willnorman.co.uk on Twitter. I noticed he hasn't crossposted here on BSky, probably because he would be ripped up to shreds. Will, don't need to champion a 💩. The service will be dead as a dodo in a couple of years and you will look at your post with shame.

@londoncycling.bsky.social are you planning to do some FOIs to get usage numbers? I think whilst it is free it may get some occasional usage at peak hours, but I can't see the service surviving once it costs money.

We also have the Cambridgeshire Sustainable Travel Alliance, not on Bluesky yet though. cambstravelalliance.org

I do recommend a dehumidifier, it makes a huge difference too ☺️

I don't know what scheme that is, but that screenshot looks awful :(

I think that is very optimistic, I still need to see what the central government is going to be doing in this regard, as otherwise it will be left to individual councils. I am more in the cautiously optimistic camp.

Probably not, only Wales has it in the UK I think?. Cambridgeshire is getting there, thanks to the leadership from Cambs County councillors even when the police are largely against (because they don't think road danger reduction initiatives are worth their time and effort).

What is the actual reach though? There are many dormant accounts over there.

I think some of it may be.

Yes, I have also seen some promising business use in the industry where I work. I know @tomforth.co.uk has got some good use of the customer-facing version, though.

I do think generative AI has its uses, but in its customer facing form, like the Google version, it is an abomination.

Twitter is awful these days. I still check it, but very rarely engage.

That is the issue, there is so much dependent on the individual. I do report, but we need more proactiveness from local governments, although they are short of cash.

If you can find somebody you used to follow there just look at their followers. That is what I did.

Have just followed most of those, so thank you, and thanks to @soundandfury.bsky.social for the tip!

Don't jinx it! 🤣 But honestly sounds good, it did look and feel remarkably like the old Twitter.

Got it, ta!

Thanks, how can I find it?
