Bluesky is new Twitter today.

There is nothing in its design to prevent it from becoming the X of tomorrow.

Sure. My goal isn't to be on the next Twitter, or Mastodon, or anything on short format social media. It's to make Twitter look worse by inflating Bluesky account numbers.

It is closer to old twitter and I never cared about federation then wouldve been fine if it was never sold to musk I enjoyed it
