The Apple Ecosystem™️ had me held captive or at least I thought. I use Google services a lot more than I thought. And I have like 9 Gmail accounts I can remember.
Still got an iPhone 14 as a side device bc it was like $50+tax. Refresh rate always gets me when switching between the two.

They want to be victims lol
"Look what they took from us" is their favorite caption
But then these are usually the same people who disparage liberal arts or whatever

There’s only so many unfunny, grievance-fueled whitegenocide post being pushed on your TL the average person can stand. I have a fairly grim view of a lot of people, but it’s just bad content. It’s nasty and alienating

It’s their own definition of an echo chamber which makes it funnier

One of the new SM rules im breaking(thank you Mr. beam) is never replying to someone I wouldn’t pay any mind in person.
Jim is very convincing however. The extrovert in me is winning.
Tell us a story or something.

Right wingers followed them here for some reason and Ive yet to understand why if “X” is the bastion of free speech and debate. Why flock here where all the “fascist liberals” hang out?

I don’t that’s what “they” are doing I believe they’re just blocking perceived nuisances and antagonizers.
Free Speech is not synonymous with being owed an audience or platform from private individuals or companies. Lefties said this on twitter pre-elon. And they left when didn’t like it.

HOWEVER, this does not translate to whistleblowers or journalist sources etc
You people are NOT the same as people spreading actual, researched truth and government overreach
But the snarky anon who loves to dunk & drop controversial takes is very stale & needs to retire

Productive conversation isn’t the problem. It’s toxic convos under the veil of “free speech”. There is already a site for “no holds barred” thats called X. We don’t need replicas? Why should this site mimic the other and not become its own thing? Do you feel this way about Tumblr? Tik Tok? Youtube?

5/ Identity churning (changing your account identity with the intent to mislead users) is not allowed on Bluesky. If you set up an impersonation account just to gain followers and switch to a different identity that is no longer impersonation to keep that account, your account will be removed.

I mean what else can you do but ignore them friend? They don’t walk to engage with you why would you want to with them? There’s 8 billion people in the world that one anon shouldn’t bother you that much. Find your tribe and ignore the people refusing a connection. All you can do really. Not that srs

The most happy people are not flocking online to spam reply debate replies to everyone they “disagree with”.
I usually just shrug and keep scrolling. Your opinion is not as valuable as you’ve been led to believe.

I disagree. They were saying the same thing on twitter now they’re all flocking here even though they won the presidency, took over twitter, and their own leader has his own SM. Not everyone wants to debate all day everyday. Most normies and apoliticals DO NOT DO THIS. Its learned behavior.

Then you go use X for that kind of dialogue. You aren’t entitled to a discussion or debate and that is exactly what I’m talking about.
People don’t want to constantly be on defense whenever they post and not everything requires others input. Sometimes its okay to just shrug and keep scrolling.

I think people are just genuinely over the toxic debate & dunking culture.
We need a buffer period where people can simply exist in an online space without feeling the need to have or voice an opinion on everything 24/7.
SM the last few years has shown us the importance of protecting your peace.

Then they try to do that weird attempt at shaming accusing us of wanting an echo chamber and my first thought is always “why do you care? You guys won Twitter. And your leader made his own social media for you guys. Go have fun there!”
But even they hate each others company. Almost a cry for help

Hopefully not but I just kinda went on a tangent in your replies lol my fault

DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS should be this sites motto. Engagement farming needs to die.

I love how everyone is on the same page. Block, move on, they don’t exist. Hopefully this attitude sticks around a while.
They want our attention SO bad. It’s pathetic on top of being sore winners. Let them enjoy their misery alone.

Of course nuance should be practiced but the OP is truly one of my pet peeves. Speak with your whole chest! No preambles

Yes a billionaire paying for sex is infinitely more embarrassing than the guy who is in a shaky, loveless marriage just deprived of touch. Only one of those people I feel sympathy for. Not always the case but nobody can convince me a billionaire thirsting over some random & funding her is “cool”.

Power doesn’t always convert into cool points. You can’t buy a personality or sex appeal. Nor force people into believing you do. But I’m sure this isn’t his first time “paying for it”.

They’re not really subtle with their troll attempts so I usually immediately block. Nothing is ever gained from those attempts ime the last 8 years. MAGA debate bros are doneski.
Definitely left the snark and “dunking” elsewhere & being here doesn’t even bring that out of me tbh. It’s very chill.

So much more enjoyable being cordial and decent online. I forgot how fun it was to just shoot the shit online with your mutuals etc. No politics or dunking or think pieces. Gotta take those things in small doses tbh or you just lose yourself when logging on.

Are you okay? 😂 YOU started schizo posting at ME. I didn’t even know you existed before this. Go rant at someone else.
