Salt & Straw ice cream, weather nice enough to wear shorts in November, and a drought warning...I guess NYC has turned into LA!

No news. Just vibes.

Direct from Mosseri: they DON’T want to encourage politics and hard news posting on Threads, and the “scrutiny, negativity…or integrity risks that come along with them.”
The goal isn't to replace Twitter. The goal is to create a public square for communities on Instagram that never really embraced Twitter and for communities on Twitter (and other platforms) that are interested in a less angry place for conversations, but not all of Twitter. Politics and hard news are inevitably going to show up on Threads - they have on Instagram as well to some extent - but we're not going to do anything to encourage those verticals. Politics and hard news are important, I don't want to imply otherwise. But my take is, from a platform's perspective, any incremental engagement or revenue they might drive is not at all worth the scrutiny, negativity (let's be honest), or integrity risks that come along with them. There are more than enough amazing communities – sports, music, fashion, beauty, entertainment, etc – to make a vibrant platform without needing to get into politics or hard news.

Starting my day with What’s Hot Classic as if I was reading a defunct alt-weekly newspaper 🗞️

A little bit of news, a little bit of sports and a whole lot of dicks and titties

hey new users, Bluesky is a *public* social network

please read about data privacy and more in our User FAQ to help you get oriented! even though we require an invite code to create an account, you should treat any posts here as if it's a public blog

https://blueskyweb.xyz/blog/5-19-2023-user-faq
What is public and what is private on Bluesky? Bluesky is a public social network. Posts and likes are public. Blocks are public. Mutes are private, but mutelists are public lists. Your mutelist subscriptions are private. Invites and invite trees are private. Why are my posts, likes, and blocks public? The AT Protocol, which Bluesky is built on, is designed to support public conversations. To make public conversations portable across all sorts of platforms, your data is stored in data repositories that anyone can view. This means that regardless of which server you choose to join, you’ll still be able to see posts across the whole network, and if you choose to change servers, you can easily take all of your data with you. This is what causes the user experience of Bluesky, a federated protocol, to be similar to all the other social media apps you have used before.
