As a physicist, this was a really funny question for me to see on @read-theroom.bsky.social on day 2 of launch week.
How old do you think the universe is? Clearly my physics friends all agree... Sus?? 🧐

My IRL friend just got followed by THE John Cena on Xwitter says that is why he can't leave the platform.
Can some famous John follow me here on @bsky.app so I can have a sick clap back tomorrow?
Maybe @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social? That'd be sweet 🤓

Yesterday I met someone who is the admin of an 80 person group chat just for... Polling.
What are the chances 😂
Hopefully we can get them to merge forces with @read-theroom.bsky.social

(1/2) I always imagined what a decentralized and truly democratic UN would look like.
What if we all really knew how the masses felt; without the top-down media, or algorithm-driven silo-ing feeds online telling us.
What would that look like... Would the masses be correct more often than not?

We wanted the app to feel clean, calm, and actually kinda nice to use! Just thoughtful questions, quick answers, and a chance to read the room. Sleek design, honest opinions. That’s the vibe.
