all social media platforms with significant financing behind them enshitify and bluesky is already there despite their promises to the contrary:

Bluesky is apparently deleting the accounts of Palestinians in Gaza under the guise of “spam.” Requests to correct this have so far gone unanswered. https://t.co/vbBfz8TFL2 pic.twitter.com/X4o7OifWlh

I don’t use either site but I have seen several people I know irl posting their Bluesky handles places so it does seem like people are moving

Bluesky will never displace twitter It's like the wow killer argument The reason twitter and wow were popular was that they existed in a small blip of time where they were revolutionary Kinda like the blackberry phones

No one needs a twitter replacement, because we have better short form content now

Twitter will kill itself just. Like wow

I have to admit, the bluesky app is really easy to get started with. I signed up for an account out of curiousty about the platform. It was probably one of the easiest social media signup processes I've had in a decade. No wonder it's picking up users fast. Of course we all know the enshitification will come, so I won't use it regularly.

Update, decided to delete that account. I'll never use it for personal stuff, and the defaults are flooding my feed with liberal cope on various issues.
