So I made a thing. It's a word game called WordSutra. You can describe it as NYTConnections for Indians (though that would be inaccurate). Why don't you check it out?! 😊 www.wordsutra.in

1) I'm intrigued if those migrating here will replicate the power networks of Twitter. Will we only:
1) RT, like those we did on Twitter?
2) Speak only with those we did there?

We have a new opportunity to reboot...before here too inevitably our interaction become calcified!

It turns out that Starter Packs are quite similar to Lists. Here's one I found go.bsky.app/3Z4SHZa Add me to the starter pack? @lucidillusions.bsky.social
I'll add folks on it to the Indiagiri list. Whichever method has more utilitarian value, we could stick to it!

For those who want a non-algorithmic feed...making a list of people who like to talk about India and Indian issues. Do check if you can join it and add other people to it!

(Exploring possibilities here so if there's another way to do this, do holler!)

Come say hi and one inconsequential thing you did recently and I'll say hi back with something ordinary that I did! 😊

Hello! Any recommendations for nuanced chatter related to India?

Hello is there such as a thing as #IndianTwitter? If there isn't, can we get started?
