| Seems fine to me. Is this like the last 10 times twitter went

| What did you do, go to the homepage for 20 seconds to make
| that in-depth assessment on something very widely-reported
| for nine straight months now as an ever-engulfing dumpster
| fire?
|
| It is not fine, take your pick: questionable leadership,
| wanton firings, bad policies, abuse/harassment, technical
| problems, legal trouble, fleeing advertisers

| Currently the only thing that costs money at bluesky is

| Unless you buy an invite code on eBay.

| I got in. Bluesky is exciting and exclusive, but I assure you
| that its popular users are not cool. Unless you think deviant,
| ultra left-wing, terminally-online people are cool. There are
| normal people too, but any decently-sized thread gets polluted.
