Every vibe-coded app that ships means 20+ new jobs will be created for people who can actually code and engineer systems.
You can quote me on that later when it's proven that I was right. I won't mind.

Here's one. It thinks this is X. It thinks this is how to engage in the conversation here.
These are dysfunctional morons and trash who belong in your personal Sparta hole. And yes, I do mean to kick them into the hole. Block them. Forget their names.
Their own families hate these losers.

If being honest, it's all been fun and also a concern to watch happen in real time. You are watching The Machine fail and break. That is what's happening now.

This is a scambot. The hot chick in your DMs is never a hot chick, and it wants something from you. Don't be a simp.

Is it maybe a little weird how "Mr. Jackson" didn't have anything further to say in this exchange? 🤔

Would you like to tell the good people here why you use a "Punisher" image as a header and call Trump...God?
Before you call me a "libtard" and read from your expired script, I'm a Trump supporter and voted for him. And I will work *against* people like you here.
We know what you are.

Blocked. This is thinly-veiled industrial sabotage designed to make platforms off-putting and unwelcoming.
Block it. This is only a form of propaganda.

Went & read the whole article calling BlueSky an echo chamber (it isn't) while trying to perpetuate the propaganda and nonsense that destroyed Twitter/X into this space.
So I quickly came back to BlueSky and blocked you. Go be a rage merchant somewhere else. Bye. #holed

The hypocrisy on display is interesting, but also irrelevant, because X is and has been nothing but a political propaganda apparatus for almost 20 years now.
I want to see it fail for that reason. It doesn't matter who it's favoring today...it's only trash. Avoid.

Here's a cherry-picked example from the CEO's profile. Why such low numbers?
Could it maybe just be that people weren't into this one post? Is it fair for me to cherry-pick it, then try to call BlueSky dead/dying? No. No it is not.
Jay gets great numbers with variance. Tells me it's real.

Here's an 11-hour old post on my profile on 22.5k follows.
Here's a 22-hour old post on my wife's profile on 13.6k follows.
We can both go cherry-pick examples that substantiate our arguments, but then I ask: Who won?

The good thing about "journalists" (propaganda agents) announcing themselves on arrival is how well the BlueSky block button works.
I don't even care where they are on the political spectrum. Blocking all propagandists and politics makes BlueSky genuinely wonderful.
