Anybody on BlueSky?

Is BlueSky open to registrations yet? I thought it was still invite only?

Personally I have no interest in BlueSky; going from Twitter to BlueSky would be going from one nutjob owned playground to a different nutjob owned playground.

Oh, and... Twitter is dead, long live Twitter!

Musk has talked about it before but he's now started the rebranding of Twitter into the generic "X" name.

His ultimate goal is to turn "X" into a do-everything app, like those that are popular in Asia such as WeChat, that can be used for social media, shopping, money transfer payments, videos, audio, and just about anything else you can think of that an app could do.

So I just went into Twitter with an account used strictly for IT related stuff and the only accounts it follows are all IT related. With the Crowdstrike outages today, it's a wild day for anybody in IT. 🤯

Anyway, I'm in there for the first time in ages and almost the entire feed is nothing but pro-Trump wild conspiracy theories and some of the most hate-filled garbage I've ever seen. WTF?!
