Bluesky really feels like the mirror universe version of Twitter. Abusive assholes stay abusive assholes no matter what "side" they belong to and there's really a ton of them here.

The app is still terrible. How hard can it be to remember the previous position in the timeline between sessions? Or to not jump to the most recent post when refreshing? And don’t get me started on the lack of an iPad version.

I'd use bluesky more if this app wasn't so terrible. Are they even trying?
