#Bluesky seems pretty calm for some reason.

Finds out the management team has posted in half a week.

Aaaaaah that'll be why.

The first interaction most people have had is through that post.

I would consider speaking to Jay and Bluesky, as their endorsements will turn people away from using you.

I personally would have to wait a long time and see proof that you act differently to those bolstering you.

Why should I use this specific platform? If its being promoted by Jay (and other xenophobes) isn't it just going to be more of the same?

Minorities harassed for being minorities, and then batch removed for speaking up against the majority, while actual racists skip and dance merrily?

Seems like your in a bit of hot water right now.

If only you listened to most of your users you would have seen this coming.

Instead you acted like a petulent child and this is the outcome.

(You pretty much nuked the app yourself, well done)

Bluesky plummeting ratings after Jay's invitation to boycott the app.

As you've promoted it, I have absolutely no interest in whatever nooki is. It's probably gonna end up being hella xenophobic (if you support it)

I was sent death threats, because no one protects minorities, and just let hatred spread.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 5d

Yeah, your always too busy removing minorities and glorifying hate groups to do your actual job.

Does anyone at Bluesky actually understand social media? Or tech in general tbh?

Everyone knows who you follow, and you seem ashamed. Like you know that it's wrong, but you have to support the xenophobes whenever they raise their voices.

(but fuck minorities yeah?)

(Also, do I have the 'rude' tag yet? I feel like it's a badge of honour right now)

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 8d

No you didn't.

The users that your CEO hates hit 2 billion posts. That isn't you, you don't like to associate with the little people keeping your app relevant. So how dare you use any accomplishment from the people you openly mock and despise.

You WERE a less fascist Xitter, and now you aren't.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 8d

Your posts scream of immaturity

You chose your position, and this is how you act? A CEO faces criticism head on. They reflect

A coward posts pictures of food and tries to ignore the storm

Both will get swept up, but only one will be prepared

Isn't it the CEO's job to be prepared, to look ahead?

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 8d

But Bluesky doesn't care about the user base?

How can you brag about post count when "users don't pay our bills" - Jay?

Bluesky @bsky.app · 8d

we hit 2 billion posts today! 🥳

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 8d

Oh wow, just you know, ignore the reasons why.

Posts surged when you refused to protect your users.

What used to be a safe place is no more. You (Jay) have destroyed this app and Musk posting isn't going to safe you.

How many of those posts are linked to negative choices and silencing users?

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 9d

You'd do literally anything, including making immature posts, over dealing with the pressing issue on the site.

You would rather mock your users then keep them safe. You are CEO my mistake, clearly you never wanted this.

Just grow up already and tackle the issues instead of hiding once more.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 9d

Right now Zen mode would be if Jay quit

It's really difficult to build a social media site without people you know?

Bluesky doesn't have the numbers to go full Xitter, so you are most likely burying yourself.

Jay 🦋 @jay.bsky.team · 11d

Are you paying us? Where?

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 11d

Some straight bang up advertising here for Mastodon

Jay 🦋 @jay.bsky.team · 11d

Harassing the mods into banning someone has never worked. And harassing people in general has never changed their mind.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 11d

I'm going to label this post a "rude"

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 11d

It the mods and owners want to act little petulent children, they'll get called out as such.

Your response shows how little reflection you have taken on this matter.

If you want to be seen as anything different from the tech bros destroying the world, stop mimicking them, grow up and act your age.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 13d

Well, you have been known to come up with works of fiction to justify oppressing minorities with no real cause.

So 'storyteller' seems apt.

Kelcie 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ @kelcielgbt.bsky.social · 13d

Did Musk pay for this post? Or are you trying to out-zuck Zuckerberg?

Either way, I don't think this portrays you in any positive light. If anything, it heavily eludes to you having a childish approach to real issues, which is not really appropriate given your position.

Please, reflect on this.

It took GPs over ten years to diagnose something I told them all about.

One of the issues facing the NHS is appointments being wasted by doctors.

How we book appointments isn't going to suddenly make more appointments. If GPs stop wasting the few appointments they have, it will free up more.

Saul Staniforth @saulstaniforth.bsky.social · 15d

Streeting thinks allowing people to book GP appointments online will solve the 8am scramble for appointments.

How will it? We've lost 2,000 GP surgeries since 2010. The problem is not enough appts and this doesn't increase the number available, it just adds another way to book

"Sometimes" meaning if a transphobe asks you to? Because that's all you care about nowadays.

Threaten all you like, once you lose your recognition no one will listen to you.

Two 'interesting' Disney facts:

1. Disney made a series with a manicial mayor with many characteristics indicative of the current president of the US.
2. Disney caved to Fisk-wannabe
