@chopaganda can you believe hashtags aren't even a thing on Bluesky?
Show threadChopAug 4, 2023

@chris Watching who gravitates to BS vs here has shown me a few things:

- For some, a pleasant and familiar UI is far more important than any level of functionality/benefit from something less familiar (be it from the comfort that comes from familiarity, not wanting to put effort in, or intimidation from doing something new)

- Many people just want to yell into the void with familiar faces and care much less about content

Nothing wrong with either. Just interesting to observe.

@chopaganda yes, without being too judgemental, I agree that it is interesting to observe the different types of people the two platforms attract. It's also funny to me that Bluesky can be abbreviated as BS.
Show threadChrisAug 4, 2023
@chopaganda that said, anything that pulls some people away from using Twitter/X is a good thing imo.
Show threadChopAug 4, 2023
@chris Totally agree. I have nothing against BS despite it seeming like a bad idea to follow Jack Dorsey to a second location, and I will likely use it a ton. My feed is just so terrible there right now. Combined with the lack of functionality, and I’m not seeing much use at the moment besides saying hi to folks.

@chopaganda I do miss a handful of people from Twitter and it's nice to keep in touch with them on BS, but that's about it. The functionality is pretty bad, but hopefully that will get better.

@chris @chopaganda butting in to say, it’s a race. Whoever has DMs first, wins. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@DreamingDreams @chopaganda Mastodon already has all the things, but I doubt there will really be a clear winner. I see the future of social media being more fragmented.
