billionaires repeatedly buy and destroy communications platforms to dominate information flow this week's 🙄 Bluesky silo redux discourse downplays that people of sense and empathy were chased here unwillingly and are focused on survival and connection, not revolution

"The general consensus I see from Bluesky users is a sort of indigence or confusion as to why the rest of the world is trapped in a right-wing echo chamber that they don’t care about. It’s because their little doomsday bunker has not really affected the apocalypse raging beyond their walled garden"

Not everything has to be useful™... Nothing about expecting social media of all things to be useful is healthy. When was social media good? When it was about helping us connect with other people for fun. It all turned to shit when people started trying to save the world with witty repartee.

it's ok to just be here and joke and talk to people and try to retain some sanity it's a fucking well-funded hellscape out there right now. I don't understand what these folks are demanding bluesky users do.

Hang out,... Get in arguments with people who you broadly agree with. Take a breath. Feel less alone for a minute. Twitter sucks in part because journalists desperately wanted it to be integral to society so it got coopted by fascists. I don't give a shit if fascists think this place sucks.
