New versions of the same old social media will never fix the problems of social media.

You just have to ride the wave with social media sites. Same as dating apps. Use them before they rot.

Absolutely correct. Make the network you want before it gets lost in the noise.

Yeah, I really don't think Bluesky will be that different and when it matters they will find a way to enshitificate it.

But I love to get new accounts to follow and good content.

Yes, but asking people not to use social media is not constructive. I don't use any, but I understand why people do, psychologically speaking. It's inevitable. The least they can do is migrate to whichever seems least enshittified at the moment.

Sure, but for those of us who enjoyed old-Twitter, eh, it's better than nothing.
