X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.
Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?
If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

🧵Lots of discussion about unhappiness with the social contract recently. Some of our new findings on how that might be linked to growing electoral fragmentation. 1) Reform & Green voters are significantly more likely to say their parents will have had a more comfortable life than they will have.
