i got banned from #bluesky for over-celebrating the death of a racist, fascist, bigot. i'm still celebrating 🥳
i went from angry to thankful that i'm now in the #fediverse
i get more engagement in months on #Mastodon than i did for a yr w/ 1.4k followers on #bsky
i don't know if this will become true, but as long as #bluesky refuses to return to me all of the content i created there before they banned me, i will continue to #Resist those appeasers

Nah, I don't think I will. Guess that means I no longer have a Bluesky presence. Oh well.

Bsky is 'What if Twitter, but only the cancelling and bullying parts?'
@quinn maybe we can get a movement going to block the bsky bridge #onhere.
I already do the emotional labor of explaining that bsky is a containment tank for those assholes every time I see a thread where somebody mentions being sad that they got all the "growth" which fedi "missed out on" during the big migration.
Eternal November in 2022 was bad enough. if 20 million un-detoxed users had landed here rather than on #bsky, this place would be an unrecoverable smoldering ruin.
Just spoke with some #rockylinux folks about having a presence on the #fediverse. They seem very interested.
Spoke with ARM booth folks as well and it sounds like it was a difficult time getting their media relations folks yo accept #bsky but that's one step closer and better than the past!

my Fediverse post migration tool slurp can now import from Bluesky!
i'm looking for beta testers who would like to give it a try, ideally on a throwaway Fedi server like a GTS testrig.
caveats:
- currently doesn't check Bluesky's advisory "Discourage apps from showing my account to logged-out users" profile flag: imported Bluesky posts will have public visibility on Fedi
- doesn't attempt to translate Bluesky thread gates to GTS interaction policies, because i need to catch up on both first
- video alt text is preserved but captions are not, because Bluesky's per-language VTT sidecar caption files would need to be converted and inlined for Fedi servers expecting one file per video
- doesn't handle quote posts, because GTS doesn't have quote posts
A feature I don’t recall seeing outside the #Fediverse: #Elk, among other #Mastodon UIs, has #Wellbeing features aimed at lowering stress levels.
