I haven't said this because I own a quarter of this place so it would come off as sour grapes but yeah, bluesky isn't that much larger than cohost, and all of the additional perceived Mindshare they have is due to the fact that:

a) they intentionally recruited twitter influencers to be early users
b) they intentionally put everyone in much closer contact constantly

obviously bluesky has a billionaire and tech celebrity at the helm so they have the ability to do a) in a way we don't, but also these are things we would've intentionally chosen not to do even if we could

knowing that bluesky has like 2.5x more users than this place and posts just very visibly do way fucking worse on there is so funny

break yourself from the mentality of "i need to be where the people are" because you actually don't, you gotta be where people actively want to see your shit. what good is mad followers and mad views and mad algorithm if no one is taking your shit in and supporting you?

this is why out take on Bluesky is basically that if we refuse to believe in it, it will go away

@whatnames7/25/2023, 3:40 AM

i've been offered bluesky invites by people mostly in response to going "ugh" at being basically paywalled when trying to open a link and like. i've just kept saying "nah not really" because. even not having really experienced bluesky, cohost is so much comfier and doesn't pull stuff like that. it's interesting to hear that we're doing "just as well" without all that

Capitalism! It fucking sucks!™️

I'm honestly not that surprised? That number sounds about right for like, the Twitter Clone Du Jour vs something much more interested in carving it's own identity out.

colin @vogon7/25/2023, 2:18 AM

yeah, but the tone around bluesky is that it’s already won the Twitter Replacement war despite being 1/1,000 the size of twitter and still 10 times smaller than even the fediverse

Damien @eramdam7/25/2023, 2:26 AM

and still being invite-only. The invite system is load-bearing at this point and it's not clear on what they'll do to remedy that lol

Nire Bryce @NireBryce7/25/2023, 5:13 AM

they also aggressively recruited journalists, because they know thats how they get people to care about it

Holly Wednesday (Dr.)@doctorwednesday7/25/2023, 7:06 AM

So what you're saying is that they've already wrecked the place.

Maersk Aerospace @Maersk-Aerospace7/25/2023, 7:43 AM

i've been eagerly awaiting them dropping the invite-only nature because if they do it it's going to be an overnight disaster. so they probably won't, but i'm still hoping for it.

Zardozz @Zazaspliffy7/27/2023, 1:05 AM

i didn't know it was a race. I just hope this place is able to keep existing.

It's kind of crazy that I get way more engagement here than I ever did on the birdsite.

whit @whit7/25/2023, 5:38 AM

it's fuckin WILD what a radical concept that is right now!!!

Flo @Voidhorn7/25/2023, 8:27 PM

Will add to this: i genuinely get way more attention on my posts here than i do twitter, even tho i somehow have 1k followers over there, and have a handful here.

i think part of it has to do with Tw's weird algos and people over here being more attuned to paying attention for more than 3 seconds
