    I keep seeing people make this argument and I think we all need to realize that different people use social media in different ways.

    I moved to Bluesky as well. It’s where my friends went, it’s where the artists and authors I follow went, it’s where some of the bigger names I care to keep up with went.

    Feels a little gross, I’m not gonna defend Bluesky or anything, but there are more reasons for the choice.

      Sure, and I’m not asking to beat anyone up over it (I’ll share my strong opinions elsewhere). Just seems strange to reap the benefits of decentralized social media on one hand but turn around and centralize on the other.

      I get the “social circle moved there” argument, since that’s what has kept a lot of people using Xitter, despite the toxic atmosphere.
