If you don't use Twitter then I don't see any reason to try Bluesky since it could basically be described as classic Twitter. But if you liked Twitter until it because a cesspit of far right shitheads, crypto bros, bots, and ads then give Bluesky a go.
No, no, I think you don't understand. /lh
What I meant by that is that I don't use it so often like most people do (2 hours a day or so), I mean like, opening once or twice every 1 or 2 weeks.
My personal suggestion? Stop using Twatter.
Whether you move on to some other microblogging platform (like Bluesky or Mastodon) or just drop it entirely is a different question and depends on what content you care about. When you do check it, what do you check it for? Would you really miss that?
If it's specific accounts or personalities you care about, you could check if they have opened alternative accounts on those other platforms and let that inform your decision. If it's topics, I don't know enough about Bluesky's userbase to recommend it, but I know Mastodon's @FediFollows@social.growyourown.services has a bunch of topic-oriented curated lists.
