@f1tv.bsky.social data channel is showing qualifying view, instead of race view. Why would I pay more for 4K when you can't get basics like this right?

@f1tv.bsky.social can you explain to me why the first big F1 event of the year, and the only thing for F1 to show for weeks, is not on F1TV? Why do I have to google where I can watch it? Seems... weird.

All very solid recommendations. I've read and enjoyed every single one of these, except the last one, for which I'm downloading the sample after I hit send on this skeet

Last Wednesday evening Kris Nova had a climbing accident and died.
All of us that loved her are heart broken and stunned. She was an amazing person that lived out loud and built connection and community wherever she went. She will be horribly missed.

So instead of not posting, which is my normal modus operandi on social networks I'm just going to post about this whole BlueSky not putting much effort into protecting people from racists thing as my form of protest.

This is why making the invite tree public needs to be mandatory - how else are we going to protect ourselves and each other from literal nazis sneaking onto here

I've had a better time on Bluesky in the last 2 months than I have had in years on Twitter
I don't want to leave. But the lack of BASIC trust and safety makes it hard for me to suggest this place to anyone
but also it's better than both threads and twitter

I liked my BlueSky experience so far, but yeah, it's unacceptable that there's all sorts of fancy detection, but not for racism... Would suck to leave so soon, but I will if this can't be fixed.
Fuck the vibes if my Black community can’t vibe too

I think my favorite thing about Bluesky isn't just that everyone is horny and weird on main; it's that being horny and weird on main never comes up as a reason not to take someone seriously otherwise.

If you were following me on the bird app, I'll probably continue my frequency here: plenty of reskeets, and like one or two posts a quarter 😇
