@mttvll I enjoyed the initial shitposting bonanza, since it was something I really missed from Twitter, but it got tiring pretty fast. Some people are really trying too hard!

@mttvll Using it daily 🙋‍♂️

@mttvll I’m not using it. I’ve tried to get access. I’d rather see a Reddit alternative so a Lemmy (or kbin) iOS client. Lemmy client would make a lot of sense. #Lemmy #LemmyiOS #Redditalternative

@mttvll It has changed a lot in the last few weeks. Bluesky added a slew of different algorithmic feeds, and allowed you to create your own custom feeds. So don’t base your work or expectations on what you saw a few weeks ago. Check the Feeds icon on the web or the official app and play with what’s there.

@mttvll Anecdotally, it feels like there was a mad rush of people to join… and now almost nobody is talking about it any more.

🤷🏻‍♂️

@jeff @mttvll Same. Feels like there was a rush of people who wanted to get on it but they got too stingy with the invites and people stopped caring.

anildash, 10 months ago

@mttvll yeah, it’s great. And there’s a “without replies” timeline that you can follow.

mttvll, 10 months ago

@anildash I like the idea of custom timelines!
But I'm not sure why they decided to use the current one as the default - to surface more content now that usage is still low?

@mttvll nope!

Exploring the Threadiverse now of Kbin&Lemmy. They’re in dire need of good apps! hint hint

@mttvll i have an account -- not posted -- i just don't trust Jack or the “vibe" people keep claiming is going on over there

@mttvll Still trying it out, I do not like the default BlueSky App. It’s messy. No way to disable reposts.

KennerDerSzene, 10 months ago

@mttvll Of course!

@mttvll I guess the real question for me is “why?”. Why would I want to give Jack Dorsey another chance to use me for his own profit? Why would I want to expose myself to the toxic waste that follows him around?

The fediverse is so much bigger and better than Jack’s latest BS. In fact, it’s almost like Jack and his billionaire buddies were sitting around over a glass of peasant tears one night, and Jack said, “I bet you $1 million that I can create a bullshit social media platform, name it BS, and journalists and celebrities will still flock to it.” The whole thing reads like L. Ron Hubbard’s creation of Scientology.

@mttvll nah, it sucks

@mttvll Have an account, don’t use it much.

And when I do, I use https://github.com/videah/skybridge and a(ny) Mastodon App…

matko, 10 months ago

@mttvll I recently got invitation and started using it. Official app is a mess so looking forward to your app

benmounseywood, 10 months ago

@mttvll it’s pretty meh, after the hype wore off, it’s a lot of Ai and crypto crap 🤷‍♂️

heyfluxay, 10 months ago

@mttvll if you figure out a way to use it that works, let me know. I don’t see the upside so far.

dr_rugby, 10 months ago

@mttvll yeah. Using it. But it is slow and quiet. Also, you are probably talking about iOS, right?

Ronnie, 10 months ago

@mttvll That’s funny. I haven’t logged on in a few weeks and then when I do Katie Mack is lamenting that exact thing.

richardwarriner, 10 months ago

@mttvll Still waiting to get in :(
