Some thoughts on #LUFC U21s today.

Not worth reading too much into the game given it was a friendly and many of the team were U18s but for those who weren’t among the 230 Leeds fans there…

We’re very lucky as Leeds fans to have a strong mix of fan and traditional media covering the club in various formats (articles, newsletters, podcasts, videos etc), but what would you like to see more of when the season restarts? Is there a niche that we are missing? #lufc

How have I only just discovered dazzle.fm?

Seems to be Bluesky’s version of Twitter Moments. AI generated rather than human curated but still impressive.

@thesquareball.net @michaeltsb.bsky.social It just dawned on me that Everton’s new stadium being sponsored by a local legal firm opens up the chance for the 49ers to rename the refurbished Elland Road using a local legal firm from Leeds and call it Levi’s Stadium. #lufc

Small thing but Bluesky was great for following the parade today. Both the live updates before and during the parade but also the pics and vids after. It’s hard to believe that it was only November when everyone started moving here from the old place. Today showed this is the home for #lufc fans.

That was ace. What a day #lufc

Imagine one of your teams losing 13-1 and it not being the worst result of the day #lufc

Welcome, Mr President! (Confirmed real)
Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

“Similarweb noted that Bluesky generated 38.6 million outgoing visits in November 2024, spread across a variety of news websites, while Threads generated 24.5 million referrals. However, the firm pointed out that 42% of Threads’ traffic was directing users to Instagram, not publishers’ websites.”

Spent a couple of hours vibe coding with Lovable today and built a pretty good Bluesky curation/storytelling tool. Incredible how easy it is without any coding skills at all.

Looks like this is where Leeds United Twitter is landing. Here's a list of #LUFC fans, media and official accounts that I'll keep updated like I did on the other place.
