So it's just twitter without the negativity?
...what's the point of that? Isn't that the only reason people used twitter in the first place?
The negativity is already there, you just have to actively look for it because there is no centralized engagement-seeking algorithm like Twitter has.
It's a fascinating case study in how perception is tailored by ease of access: because people aren't, by and large, actively looking for shit to get into, it's viewed as not negative versus Twitter going "here's the worst person you've ever seen, 350k likes"
You can't even really make the "there's less Nazis!" case, Because as usual, the Nazis are *still there*, they just aren't being jammed in your face by everyone arguing with them on bluesky versus Twitter's algorithm going "huh this has a lot of traffic, everyone should see this" to everyone critiquing a manifesto from the dumbest asshole of today (selectively boosted because Elon is a toolbag that weights his particular interests higher for everybody)
