Bluesky (Social Media Site)

Anybody need an invite? I have a few to go around if anybody is looking, just hit me up. I’m also looking for some good synthesizer follows there if anybody has some recommendations. I did a search but I didn’t see any threads about it here.

I found and joined bluesky, but not posting any musical content yet. I like it as a contrast to twitter … for one I don’t get unwanted post notifications from the Lone Skum.

I’m there, but just started using it so beyond following 2 people and setting some images it’s pretty vacant :sweat_smile:

Plotting to start posting stuff soon tho, gotta work on my difficulty with sharing-personality

Surprisingly, not many music makers following @elektron.se on Bluesky (mostly companies)

Or maybe that’s not surprising since they’ve made one post so far.

gave everyone a follow :slight_smile:
I’m @rossyokermoon.bsky.social on Bluesky - currently mainly just top-of-the-head rambles but will post sounds there in future.

strongly considering the no-Meta life.

…really dunno what to think of all this separation reflex thing humans do…

another bubble, where another bunch of humans feel good to be on the right side of history…!?

might be no good idea on the long run, that some billionaire is in charge of a virtual “global village space” to uphold free speech…but the basic need for such a space is out of question for me…
any counter/paralell spaces won’t do the hardly and desperatly needed trick…

we’re standing at the gates of the information age…no way around it…information and comunication is entering the next level of our common human history…so let’s debate, instead of splitting into even more micro and macro tribal behaviour and stay friendly and open, so the better argument may lead to all the next level solutions, we all need to find more common ground…

There’s a lot to unpack in that one. But a big one is voting with your feet/money, only support that which is worthy of it

No one talked about being on the right side of history, you are bringing and projecting your views into the discussion and then saying lets debate when no one asked for it. How about letting people share their profiles and connect if they want to without the pseudo-intellectual commentary.

Look. I’m a black man. I don’t want to share space with Nazis. I don’t want to patronize a platform run by someone sympathetic to them. I don’t think that they have any ideas worth debating. At the end of the day, I don’t think there’s any value in pretending for the sake of argument that my full humanity is up for debate.

Actually, my need is to be in a community that doesn’t impose any world view, in contrast to twitter where I get the owner’s views imposed on me via unwanted notifications (and other aspects of the twitter algorithm). That isn’t about free speech, it’s about promoting misinformation.

Exactly. I’m moving to BlueSky soon as well.

Thanks - that’s a good reminder to start moving stuff about Live & Indirect Sessions and Drift of Signifieds to Bluesky and away from other Meta-controlled social media (Twitter being long since abandoned…).

If anyone wants to bridge their Bluesky and Mastodon accounts, this is one way to do so:

I’m on Bluesky, but only for news/opeds. Honestly, I debate deleting it because it just brings me down.

I’m enjoying being in it still. This is me: @simonmackie.uk on Bluesky

I recently set up an account, but haven’t posted anything yet. Looking forward to seeing a viable alternative to the toxic wasteland formally known as Twitter grow.
