It's pretty amazing. Whenever the owner of this place does something awful, more people show up on BlueSky. (Lots of folks showing up this past week . . . )

BlueSky is far from perfect, but it's fairly easy to make the jerks go away if they show up in replies or anywhere.
Good moderation tools & blocklist options help when needed.

Lots of new users at BlueSky this week for some reason . . .
(I've been on there for over a year, was user #125,000-something. Not there in the earliest of days but early enough.)

Jack hasn't been involved with BlueSky for a long time, in case you weren't aware and were wary due to his presence.

The thing where you can detach people's quote posts from your posts is super cool. Or disallow quote posting.
Blocking works really well on BlueSky as do a variety of tools that really reduce the suck if you have a popular post.

Bluesky, a new social media site that’s become the best place on the internet for me… and maybe you too? If you’re not already on social media, congratulations — you should probably stay … Continue reading Why I ditched Twitter for Bluesky – and hope you will, too! →

I recommended locking down your account as much as possible. Downloading your archive. And then start hanging out elsewhere (I recommend BlueSky if you want the place that is closest to this place but better).

I wish I had it in me to do a series of essays on the art of fanvids because I would have a lot to say about this one.
(And many more, let's be honest. Though sometimes the best the critical analysis part of my brain can do is "great!")
