I gotta tell you folks, after reading various discussions on Lemmy the past few days while also being an existing Bluesky user -

Mastodon and Lemmy seem to be having this having this really intense mean-girls gossipfest about Bluesky and Threads, meanwhile Bluesky is just doing its own thing, oblivious to Threads or all the mean-girls stuff. Everyone over there mostly just excited about more new users if they've commented on it at all, IME.

 

IMO, it's closer to this meme, but still a loose fit. I know Threads isn't in the picture, that's also accurate. Whatever Threads is off doing is... whatever Threads is off doing.

Almost perfect, just...

It’s be nice to get more users to Lemmy instead of another platform, but I’m more of a link-aggregator guy than a microblog kinda guy, so I’m glad there’s a microblog tool out there competing with Xitter.

This meme is good, you should consider posting it on its own

[–] octopus_ink@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

Thanks buddy! I probably won't, but you are welcome to steal it!

Literally this. bsky is just chilling while a group of users on lemmy and mastodon are losing their shit about it, without doing anything to make their own platforms actually better for the average normie user. If they don't want normies there's nothing to complain about, if they do, they should be taking notes on what bsky is doing.

I've seen more shit talking on Bluesky about Mastodon than Threads, to be honest.

I almost never see Mastodon or Threads mentioned at all, but I suppose that is testament to how different one person's Bluesky experience can be to another's with feeds etc.

That's why I'm finding these discussions here kind of amusing.

It feels like Lemmy is over here going "What do you think of Mastodon and Threads, Bluesky?! Huh?!"

And Bluesky is all "I really don't think of them."

My experience has been that in general, bluesky has already moved onto the phase of just regular content, instead of content about itself, at leasty feed. There are still posts for things like starter packs and stuff that pop up, but mostly it's just normal news and hot takes and stuff.

Honestly, the fediverse stuff like lemmy and mastodon really has 'i don't even know who you are' vibes. People on bluesky don't really seem to care about any of it.

I haven't seen a single person mention Mastodon on bsky, I've only seen people talk about it here.

[–] Cyborg@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I haven't seen shit talking as much as "This is why mastodon isn't welcoming to most people". It's a fine platform for its niche but it's a niche, and some mastodon users seem a little salty about it / don't realize they're a niche.

[–] KenTheEagle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Is it shit talking?

People are sharing valid criticism of why they personally left, or don't currently use Mastodon. In the last year of being on Bluesky every post on Lemmy "Why don't people use Mastodon?" and people are telling you why.

I feel like threads isn't really a contender, it doesn't even have hashtags. It's just not the same type of platform.

[–] zaph@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Kind of ironic that mastodon is posting this, no?

[–] Ofiuco@lemmy.cafe 10 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I've seen waaaay more posts about but why not mastodon? than posts on bluesky complaining about threads

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lemmy is the person way in the background with their hands in their pocket

*key forks are just out of shot on the left peeking out from behind the parked cars hoping everyone tires themselves out so it can swoop in late and kick all their asses.

Mastodon and the feddiverse should be the only way to progress as humanity
