I've recently gained a large number of followers that are HR practitioners like myself. Welcome!

That said: I didn't join Bluesky 1+ year ago to recreate Twitter. My topics of discussion here are different. I don't talk HR that much. Politics and photography? Absolutely.

Make of it what you will.

Thank you to everyone that's been on this journey with me.
