Quick social media headsup from the olden days: do not subscribe to any blocklists of which you do not -absolutely- know and trust the creator. A lot of trolls will make genuine looking blocklists, and then slowly start adding good people to them. Always verify account names & handles!

Hey new Bluesky users: this website has no centralized algorithm.
If you think it seems dead in here, it's absolutely not.
However, you are going to have to follow more people than you did on Twitter to see a lot of action in your Home feed.

This is an excellent report - and accurate in the assertions regarding the 13% stat. However...
I understand why they couldn't dive into intersectionality because of resources, I get it - but intersectionality and socio-economic class have relevant and intrinsic links.

A staggering report about class in the UK games industry - just 13% are "from lower socioeconomic backgrounds", making it "roughly a third less inclusive than the wider country".
This is compared to 29% in film/TV, 32% in design/fashion, and 22% in music.
