Will be a pretty interesting sentencing!

My interest in social media was rekindled by Bluesky. Its renaissance since the election has impressed me. The culture of blocking hate is refreshing. The lack of a forced algorithm is wonderful. It feels like the early days of Twitter. So, for now, that is where I will be.
