BlueSky is ignoring Customer Retention.
When I first signed up I would spend hours on this site. Now, I only log on for a few minutes. The problem is the algorithms bury posts from new/small accounts.

No one will see this post as BlueSky's engagement is simply terrible. The Discover tab should be renamed "Top Posts" as it merely re-posts the same accounts over and over.
If BlueSky expects to contend with other platforms they need to create a page that truly "Discovers" small and large accounts.

Engagement on BlueSky is terrible. I mean absolutely awful. Don't get me wrong. I like the site, and enjoy many of the posts, but it appears only very large accounts receive views.
With this in mind I am going to unfollow any accounts over 1,000 followers.
See if that makes a difference in my feed.

The sad part is illegal immigration is not a real problem. This so-called problem has been manufactured and exaggerated by the GOP to spread fear and gain votes. Sadly, MAGA voters are easily scared and soak up conspiracy theories like sponges.

Tell you what Mr. Kinzinger. Why don't you reveal the Republican healthcare plans the GOP has been promising for more than 20 years. Surely you must have a draft lying around somewhere.
The bottom line? The GOP is just as guilty of murder as Mr. Mangione by withholding healthcare from millions.

As a private citizen there isn't much I can do to impede our government's attacks on immigrants, but if there is any chance I can make it more difficult I will.

This is... actually a fairly reasonable takeaway from this year.

The horrible part of this story is illegal immigration is NOT a real problem. This so-called problem has been manufactured to give MAGA something to be angry about.

If one of us was shot in NYC a homicide cop would hand our family a card and we’d never hear from them again but they’ve got hundreds of cops going after this guy because he made billions for healthcare company investors.

If you don't like the facts, then simply change the history. The truth is Israel is a terrorist state no better than Hamas.

This is how to turn a democracy into a dictatorship 101.
Take over military by appointing "loyal" officers.
Fix elections like Russia does.
Democracy gone forever.
Meanwhile MAGA pretend to be patriots.
