For and Against Bluesky

Wednesday, April 19, 2023

Point against Bluesky:

Already it’s recommending I follow crypto bros, as if no one who works on this app has ever read my bio, which states, in pertinent part:

I’m giving this place a chance. You all better keep the crypto sh*t out of my face, and my feed.

Point for Bluesky:

I made my handle my domain name. It involved a new DNS record and everything. Arcane geekery to many, a warm comforting breeze to me.

See this post on Bluesky, where I’m @joeross.me. Let’s avoid crypto bros together.
