Soon i will be culturally illiterate not just because i am old but because i am violently allergic to shortform phone videos
The larger reality to contend with is that microblogging — here, there, and everywhere — is now a marginal form of online engagement. Everyone serious about reaching wide audiences is doing video or podcasts. Arguing about Bluesky and Twitter — it's proud nobodies fighting proud nobodies.

People have no taste.
It bums me out to no end that so many people watched the first season of Ashoka, a *shockingly* poorly made series, compared to the Acolyte (not always great but trying to do something interesting) and Andor
"With three episodes a week, the series should stay in the Luminate Top 10 for the rest of its run, giving us a few more points of comparison, but US audiences are really giving it a near-epidermal thumbs-down, even though it's probably the best thing to happen to Star Wars since Rogue One."

This shit sucks.
The Wikimedia Foundation, which owns Wikipedia, says its bandwidth costs have gone up 50% since Jan 2024 — a rise they attribute to AI crawlers.

Nothing beats Kid Pix.
Recently one of my nephews stopped by and I showed him the old Mac we had set up in our living room.
He immediately got sucked into Kid Pix. It’s so cool to see them enjoying the programs we grew up with.

Get the word out!
as an experiment, I posted the same post to twitter and bluesky.
here is the time series of engagements (sum of comments, reposts, likes) from the two platforms.
Note that I have 39K followers on twitter and 7K here, so engagement per follower here is more than 10 times higher here on bluesky.
