Same here, Tanya

Oh, OK. Random dude at THE SPECTATOR says so. 🙄

I left Twitter months ago!

💯

Consider the source… I refuse to go on Twitter and am only on Bluesky.

Hard to post on X when I deleted my account. People keeping an active account are complicit in its continued impacts on society like the misinformation and hatred it spreads. It also helps out the guy who owns it and its heartless shareholders. Delete it. Let it disintegrate at long last.

I suspect a bit of selection bias in this. :)

Only death I smell is on X!

What’s dying is the credibility of Russian disinformation.

They're about as right-wing as you can get.

Naturally

I have never been in X and never will. BlueSky is my first social media app

Rarely reposting on Twitter, but cruising to be thrown off for harassing Donald & Elon.

This place is great! People actually engage... :)

I deleted X and never looked back. It’s a sewer cesspool.

So, you can hang out here, where we're "smug and boring" or go over to Twitter/X, where they're "Nazis and pedophiles." Yeah, I'm good with my choices....

The only reason they think Blue Sky is dead is because they think it’s “boring” and they rather want to hurt their own mental health with engagement bait

False statement

Awful article. P.S. You had me at Sesame Street.

This one line tells you everything you need to know about this article and it's author "ironically, Bluesky is now much nastier than Twitter"

Well played

Would that make us Zombies???? Well they want us to feel like we are losing, soooo naturally they spread the rumor & stand back hoping to watch us sink. I am not sorry to disappoint them. Donaldo delenda est

👍😺

And bad tariffed Chinese imitation junk.

Understood

💙

No X here.

They wish 😆

Yep

Also, either that's a really unflattering caricature, or Sean Thomas is the poster child for Thalidomide. Jesus, Sloth, maybe you should spend less time writing articles about social media and more time having adventures with The Goonies.

"B-but all my friends are on Twitter!" is the new "I was just following orders!"

✅

Who wrote this? Some middle school student? The "skeets" joke alone is the single best argument for the necessity of strong editors.

I'm very smug and boring It's a super skill Must be why I love this place ⬆️

Agreed, and same.

I never used Twitter (sorry?) Came to bsky to engage in the resistance against a felon, a traitor, a fascist, and a tyrant.

My BS bubble lives more and more :) X is dead for me.

Fuck X and Fuck Meta. And to hell with their owners, shareholders, proponents, and users

The Spectator wishes it was dying I suspect 😂

Paywalled horseshit

Yep

PS I do everything I can to interact with others. Jokes, politics, sports, dogs, art, gardens. I can talk about just everything.

The day #Mushman starting allowing Nazi & Racist posts. I left and finally found #Bluesky my home, my people. #LameDuckDon

What a stupid article

Personally, being on both sites, I find too many rude, aggressive, far right people to avoid on X!

Same here, Karl.

Nice. 💙

Excuse me! I admit to being boring, but I am NOT smug!

I X’ed out X long ago. That collection of Fuch Knews was no longer for me.

Spectator is A RIGHT WING RAG. Some other rich guy outbid Rupert Murdoch to buy it, It pushed Brexit (serving Russia's interests). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spe...

I’m frustrated because I rarely see the people I follow unless I search individually. Secondly, not every elected democrat is using Bluesky and that annoys me. I will still never go back to Threads or Twitter. (I know it’s X, I’m just being defiant)

Dying? We have like 35 million people on here… 1/2 of X is bots.

No X, no Tesla, no CBS advertisers, shall I go on? Bluesky: yes.

Sheesh what absolute bollocks.

😆 🤣

It's The Spectator, of course it's going to be crap. And if we're talking smug and boring... Anyway, I'm finding Bluesky great to be on, much moreso than Twitter!

With apologies to Irving Berlin "Bluesky Smiling at me Nothing but bluesky Do I see"

👏

Right on. ❤️

Bluesky feels like Twitter around 2010, pre-Arab Spring when governments around the world realized they had to control or manipulate the content on social media platforms. Will they be able to control Bluesky? Only time will tell.

Yes! 💙

I have never been on Twitter/X

What’s X Now? It’s a has been and an illusion of Twitter.

Right on, Gwen.

Deleted my X account at the beginning of the year and post here pretty regularly. Don’t care about their rumours.

;)

Bluesky forever!

Yep, that would be me.

❤️ 💙

X has become a pro-Russian platform full of fascist posts.

💯 ❤️

Welcome home ❤️

I left X to be here I've been really busy fighting trumps regime. Online in the streets. I get info from Bluesky YouTube substack. So X is dead to me and blue sky is not!!

Hmm. Thanks for the information. Now I need to rethink this.

Only on BlueSky

Never joined Twitter/X. Enjoying the engagement here.

Nah but Twitter died ans was embalmed several years ago

I would rather comment with my experience of only using Bluesky and deleting my twitter account. Spectator is a right biased news org that doesn't need our amplification. Bluesky is the best of them. It is the people that make the site of course, so any negativity is brought by us.

Bluesky🦋 is NOT dying.

😆 🤣 totally

X is dead to me. Unusable. Long live BlueSky, Elon fluffers!

Happy to be here, stopped posting on X a while back.

Never X

Not posting on X anymore but go back to annotations occasionally to see if I've missed catching up with people on here. Some people I followed seem to have returned to X or don't seem to use Bluesky so often/regularly.

Haven’t been on Xitter in 2 years

Spectator.co.uk is dying!

Excellent

Haven't gone back to Twitter since December

There are x reasons to forget X 😉

Same

Cool
