BlueSky collecting the twitter users leaving en-masse

[BabyBoomer50s]

588 Million on X.
30-some on BS.

Lol

Yep. I was just noting that some of the roughly 36 million on BS are still on X as well. In other words, not all of the minuscule number of people on BS have abandoned X.

 

[ll74]

By blatantly copying X, bluesky scraped away about 6% of X’s user base.

Copycats.

Butters should stay there.
Lol

They didn't blatantly copy X. Same content formatting(ish), but it's entirely decentralized code.
Truth social blatantly copied X more than BlueSky did.

 

[ll74]

Copycats are copycats.

Litrats are Litrats.

Lol

Random nonsensical words are certainly nonsensical

It was a "statement" that didn't actually sell all that well.

Progressives should find a different ad agency, the one they're using sucks.

I disagree. On Bluesky, one has 100% control over their newsfeed, you don't have Mark Zuckerberg scanning your browser history to insert a "we think you'll like this" ad every fifth post or Elon Musk pushing his Trump-friendly fascist agenda.

I left Twitter months ago, and on occasion it gets difficult because whether one likes it or not, Twitter is the gold standard for up-to-the-minute news. It's gotten much better though since Acyn started his breaking news feed on Bluesky as well.

 

[ll74]

My point is that without twitter and its founder there’d be no bluesky, which really is a twitter 2.0.

It would be nice to see something new.

It is something new.

That is why he left to pursue creation of it.

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

Well, well, well…I guess diversity just ain’t yo thang after all…

 

[ll74]

The people who went to BlueSky aren't coming back to Twitter.

Sorry
...it's a cesspool.

Whether BlueSky is a success is another matter

I’m sure it will be successful…just another echo chamber for the Radicalized. Much like Media Matters and other places just kept veering left…and never could get control of the car to get it back in the road.

Twitter is an echo chamber.

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

Twitter is an echo chamber.

I didn’t say it wasn’t. BS was advertised as an alternative…for like minded Radicals. Par for the course, the hard core Radicalized have taken it over and people are starting to filter back to the Twatter…

Truth be told, I doubt in our near future, we’ll ever see a site that the extremes don’t grab by the throat….

Twitter is a maga.echo chamber.
Blue sky is a leftie echo chamber.

Lefties aren't going back to Twitter
Righties aren't going to blue sky.
Neither censor.

Picking a winner is dumb.

Celebrating the demise of one is dumb

 

[ll74]

Where’d you hear that?

Ahahaha!

I didn’t celebrate the demise as much as I was showing an “I told you so”…even though I never said that. You’re correct though…everyone is entrenched and I alluded to that upstream.

I will add, this hasn’t gone well in other mediums for the left. Air America ring a bell? Little Albert Arnold “Al” Gore’s attempt at replicating the success of conservative talk radio. The paradigm has shifted I know, but the battlefield is littered with leftwing corpses of the chat variety.

You just did.

That's why you posted about BlueSky.

But keep at it

Your mind reading abilities are ASTOUNDING Carnac!

According to the linked article, BlueSky is doing fine.

Between November 2024 and this May, Bluesky grew from about 10 million users to 30 million, according to a Pew Research Center analysis.

Mark Cuban’s opinion isn’t based on any facts, and it’s weird that Hump crows about it. Hump is a weird guy.

Oh myyyyy! You actually read the link. I didn’t say it “wasn’t doing fine”, just that some have left due to Radicalized leftists taking over and I’m guessing shouting down the ones not toeing the line.

But, as usual, that’s 100% bluster and 0% fact.

Ahhh…Johnny come lately. Maybe read the whole thread…you know, the part where I stated:

Comprehension. It’s what’s for dinner.

Poor Hump. You ought to stick to posting irrelevant memes.

Good news for BlueSky! They just got a new user. #AcheivingRelevance
