Good work, what is it and how can we achieve it?

We’re joining the Yorkshire and Humber Good Work, Health and Skills Summit today in Leeds discussing how we can work collectively to support people to stay health and in good employment.

Having experienced the challenge of finding the UK health / NHS policy community here on Bluesky, I've created a starter pack so you can easily follow some key voices right away. Please comment with suggested additions as more people join. go.bsky.app/NEVJUbU

Hey @gingervic.bsky.social this will be of interest
Many people have fled X, but still valued the political insight on the platform. Good news! Many big accounts have now arrived on Bluesky.

Here is a starter pack with the Top 50 UK Political Commentators, based on their follower numbers.

Hopefully helpful for new arrivals here. Feel free to share.

This is a great read. Not simply 'X is crap', but nuanced, funny, self-reflective, almost an elegy to the old site. And you'll never guess* what Ian attributes his huge X following to...

If you're wondering why Blue Sky is creaking a little right now: new user growth has exceeded *one million* in 27 hours

This may be the fastest Mass Defection Event in internet history to date. Bluesky has 20 devs

It will bounce back but some growing pains are inevitable!

It is very pleasing to see how busy this place is becoming! Lots of familiar faces and many interesting new ones. The starter packs are incredibly helpful and it feels much more intuitive than I originally thought.
