Is @bsky.app a viable Twitter alternative? Of course. It does well what Twitter does well and does many other things better. But I understand why we ask. What we mean is: Is a non-Twitter version of ourselves viable? Or are we permanently addicted to messy drama and ragebait? Can we change? Hope so.
