I find it funny how hard people try to push the “BlueSky is better than twitter” narrative. So hard, that my entire BlueSky feed is filled with Twitter refugees who shit post about twitter being bad.

Maybe instead of having yet another echo chamber of short form content, we should embrace long form, well written content with wide range of opinions.

Social networks have been algorithmically deprioritizing long form/well-written content, with Twitter/X being the most egregious offender.

Atleast Bluesky has a chronological feed without shenanigans.

I don’t think the problem is the algorithmic or chronological feed.

I think the problem is that short form content simply should not exit. I don’t care what people eat for breakfast, or reading the same motivation quote over and over again.

I want to have discussions, with different opinions. And current microblogging platforms do not provide that. Hence it doesn’t matter who “wins”. IMHO they are all net negative for humanity
