Have you ever seen the film Spirited Away? (You should watch it if not).

Bluesky feels like what would be left after the bath if Twitter was the river spirit that needed all the mud and garbage pulled out of it.

Most people are still too invested in their followings over there though.
With Bluesky as part of my regular app diet I’ve felt engaged with more creativity & less acidic slop. This love letter to personal websites from @localghost.dev makes me miss mine…

(Torrents of slop may, I fear, be the inevitable fate of any successful platform).

I finally deleted my dormant exTwitter account. It’s quite clear now that it’s being run with the same kind of ethos as “Truth Social”. Either left or right, such a clear degree of bias at the head of any platform will rot it out in time.

After only 10 years we have replaced the front door on our renovation project. It now makes the windows look even worse. Maybe we need to slow down.
