Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky

Today’s #bluesky feed is filled with poetry. This is the place I want to be. I’m surrounded by artists and poets. This is digital heaven. #poetry #poets #poetryappreciation

I’ve mentioned this before, but if you’re short on cash but have an urge to shop, go to your library digital apps and browse the books, audiobooks, movies, shoes, magazines. It works really well to give you the same feeling without spending the cash. (Plus you’re supporting public libraries.) 💙📚

Too many people haven’t touched a book since they graduated high school and it shows.

Super bummed. Aren’t you bummed?
Donalds: All I will say is, I am not surprised that I have not been named, but that does not mean I'm not going to do other things in the future.

Coates: Has they asked you?

Donalds: No, there are some other things that I’m looking at

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

If #Bluesky is an echo chamber, then at least it’s one where people care about each other and want to move our nation forward, not decades backward. When my descendants look back upon their family history, they can rest easy knowing at least one of us stood up for what is right. #womenhaverights

Bluesky has grown by over 3M people in the last week — welcome!

With every wave of growth naturally comes an increase in moderation reports. Here’s a status report on how the Trust & Safety team is handling it:

Brand new in town (like, less than an hour). I left the other place a long time ago. Let’s catch up again! What are you reading? I’ve just about finished everything Julia Quinn has written. Romance novels have been my escape from reality. #romancereads #librarylife
