TIL there are actively NSFW communities on Bluesky.

Quite a few, and fairly active.
Probably won't help much with #resistance but good for a time sink.

It seems damion is now playing the game of dismissing everything on a topic (here, the left-wing and BlueSky) because of a minuscule number of extremists. That game is itself a type of extremism.

Please feel free to quote the bits I missed; things get pretty hectic and even crazy when you're hosting the in-laws.
I finally deactivated my twitter account. I think bluesky has already matured enough to be a vaible information source during emergencies, which was always a twitters strength. Twitter got worse in that regard, allowing spam and bots and misinfo, most of the smarter people migrated to Blusky arleady.
Not all of them, unfortunately. But enough. Government agencies are still really slow about it though. Local sheriff departments, state government and federal agencies are mostly not in bluesky yet. Hopefully they'll get there.

I've not quite got as far as deactivating my account, but I'm monitoring to make sure I'm following the same people on Bluesky now, where possible.
I might still keep the account going anyway, for business reasons.

Yeah I still have my account, but I haven't looked at it since the election.

Finally took the step today to delete my Face and Insta. I've been meaning to do it for a while, but Zuck's commitment to fascism was the extra reason I needed to finally get it done. Feels incredibly good, actually. I'll lose Messenger, but I almost never used that anymore anyway, and there are always other ways to reach people.

Great minds think...
The ◊◊◊◊◊◊ part for me was losing all the pics I had taken on there over the years. I had a lot of family and friends. A few friends that had passed away I lost as well but at this point it's probably a good idea. I don't see myself on Facebook all that much moving forward, and I never had an insta.
