Oh get the fuck out of here. All Bluesky has is celebrities and celebrity journalists, big fuckin whoop.
I'd way rather talk to real human beings instead of the Public Relations Team of a bunch of wankers.
Sorry, most humans are obsessive about stupid celebrity culture, and that doesn't mean it's a better product. It means it's a more vapid product.
I'm glad blue sky exists for two reasons:
Celebrity and brand containment zone is the first good argument I’ve heard to date.
Settle down dude.
A big chunk of the comic art people from twitter went there. The art community on Mastodon is very mid. So that's a big part of why I like Bluesky.
And while I don't care about following journalists personally, that's arguably one of the major things people want out of a twitter-like platform. Breaking news.
Threads is much worse for celebrity bullshit.
Amen...
