I'm not knocking anyone who gets something out of bluesky that they want but to me it's like... if you asked me today if I'd be interested in joining Twitter all over again... like... no. Absolutely not. That's ridiculous. Of course not. Lmao. No. Like you might as well ask me if I'd rather relive college. I got a lot out of the experience but no I do not want to go back I have built a very good life since then and I don't need to invite all that stress back into my life I'm a grown up now and I've already done my time.

I still get the same panic attacks every time half my feed there is people saying stuff that’s just entirely untrue as i did on twitter 🙃
You mean you're not excited for people to misinterpret your writing in all manner of novel and unpredictable ways? [scoffs] So much for human creativity amirite?
this is the thing like getting off twitter made me an immeasurably better person why would i go back to the place that’s That But My Friends Aren’t Even All On There
I get the feeling. If anyone asks what my bluesky is I'm just gonna say I never got around to claiming an invite code and then bulldoze the conversation forward past their insistence that's not a thing any more.
It has such strong 'people running from one Starbucks into to another' scene from Shrek 2.
That's my feelings too. I only saw more of the same as on the other site. Some were crossposting but now with less context to it.
