Think a lot of us are here for this
The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Getting sea legs on @bsky.app but open to all recommendations on:

- top accounts to follow
- useful hacks to make it work better
- any apps/innovation to discover?
- how different from X (outside of the trolls/cesspool it became)?
- work or play?

Looking fwd to your input, thoughts & connections

Last year around this time we decided to attend the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade in NYC via subway. Apparently 3 million other people had the same idea and we were stuffed in train car like sardines. No surprise, 5-days later: COVID. 😷🤷‍♂️

@bsky.app feeling the same rn w/millions jumping on. Stay well.

As I noted on my blog: Hacking on Bluesky feels reminiscent of the massive diversity of innovation we saw around Twitter back in the late 2000s and early 2010s.

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size.

At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.
