5 days on Bluesky now - I thought I'd be a little more active, but it's been a busy week. Still, choosing Bluesky feels like the right decision. Looking forward to many more days, weeks, months and years with y'all. 😊

Today was a grind, but some solid calls made it bearable. New colleague's a gamer too, so a ticket handoff turned into a deep dive on The Division and more. Wrapping it up with the Battle for Brooklyn showcase at 18:00 - starts in an hour!

I've had Conclave on my watchlist for weeks and watched it tonight after the passing of Pope Francis this morning. It was really interesting - I learned a lot and can definitely recommend it.

Day 2 on Bluesky and two things from the books I mentioned yesterday are already outdated: videos go up to 180s (not 60), and a new verification system launched today. Guess that's the challenge of writing about a growing platform - but no regrets, still worth it!

Went on a donkey hike and spent about 4 hrs out in nature, walking along the river, crossing a bridge and making the way back on the other side. Peaceful vibes, great views and some seriously chill donkey company. Loved it! 😊

Mastodon launched in 2016 with full decentralization, a robust app ecosystem, and has ~10m users today. BlueSky, newer and still in development, has 34M users. Simplicity and familiar UI often win over powerful but complex design.

Before joining Bluesky, I took my time researching through articles and books. Most of them were outdated and rushed cash-grabs. But two really stood out: Bluesky For Dummies by Rebecca Bollwitt & Eric Butow, and Bluesky Decoded by Brad Smith. Totally worth the read!
