Is Bluesky Dying? by James Bell
I'm not strongly attached to Bluesky in the way that I used to be with Twitter, but it would have been nice to see this platform take off.
A good read on how the platform is trending from James Bell:
Communities take time to build, and people have to have faith it’s worth the effort. Some of those people are the ones who put the money in, but it’s also the people who make the content – and the power users of text-based social networks have bounced around an awful lot already.
There isn’t a huge set of new startup social networks around. If you’re just looking to troll the libs and write “Bames Jall” to your 70 followers, that might not matter. But for people who use social for their careers, or for normies who want things that look and feel like professional products, this stuff matters.
