If you just left Bluesky today to join or come back to Mastodon, welcome (back)!

@numb_comfortably @bazurk @Em0nM4stodon We might be a little clunky but at least our verification system doesn't lead to this sort of shit lmao, Bridgy at most with bluesky/atproto from now on.

@Em0nM4stodon
I should just go through my history and boost the last time I welcomed them.

[em0nm4stodon@infosec.exchange]

@TheGreatLlama Fair

[numb_comfortably@hachyderm.io]

@chrislowles Nah, I quit Bridgy too. It doesn't really add any value.

[chrislowles@mastodon.social]

@numb_comfortably I see, tbh I'm only really following like 3ish people right now, I'm definitely quitting Bsky directly tho

[b7sh@mastodon.social]

@Em0nM4stodon glad to be here with like minded folks

[jmorris@social.kernel.org]

@Em0nM4stodon what is happening at bsky?

[nick@schiwy.co]

@Em0nM4stodon @bazurk thanks to my block list I was already blocking when I learned it existed

[mikal@sfba.social]

@amPennyfeather @Em0nM4stodon

Yeah, you know, funny timing… I was considering holding my nose and creating an account there just to have a presence so once in a while I could announce when I had new photos available for sale, even if it was just to direct people to mastodon or my website, but nah, fuck that.

[mikal@sfba.social]

@Em0nM4stodon

Also, poke around in the settings a bit and you may notice some improvements since last time you were on Mastodon, especially if it's been a couple years.

@jmorris @Em0nM4stodon #Bluesky – the company – has verified ICE on 2026-01-17.

[hewasaseidrbxy@kind.social]

@bazurk @Em0nM4stodon

Not only that, but the way admin and mods are treating trans people is reprehensible. Even big accounts (i.e., Parker Molloy) are getting dogpiled on and run off the platform.

I'm not officially quitting it, but I'm going to endeavor to be over here more often.

[bazurk@social.lol]

@hewasaseidrbxy @Em0nM4stodon

No judgment on your decision but numbers matter to this company. I would recommend deleting the account. unlink your domain first just in case you ever want to go back. And delete the account. Just my two cents.

[normjess@tech.lgbt]

@jmorris @Em0nM4stodon
ICE were approved an account

they are noting who blocks them too

its like you're being policed in real-time, on social media, and if you're a vocal critic maybe you're found and disappeared

[zach_cyberwolfox@techhub.social]

@Em0nM4stodon Ok, I just deleted my Bluesky account. I'll see if I can get used to Mastodon

[egalandbooks@mastodon.world]

@Em0nM4stodon Wow. I have been off most other platforms since September, so I had no idea this was happening. This makes me want to delete my Bluesky account, I might as well, I think I have posted once in the last 4-5 months. No use for it anymore.

[pedromosilva@mastodon.social]

@Em0nM4stodon I did and it felt awesome!

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@amPennyfeather if it makes you feel any better, I had 1100 followers on Bluesky but I was rarely posting there because of their weird algorithms. I’d get 1-2 interactions at best, it felt like skeeting into the void. The Fediverse is so much better and more human. I’ve built so many amazing friendships on here

@Em0nM4stodon

@Em0nM4stodon

We're the feds you can trust!

#fediverse

[pamelabarroway@mstdn.social]

@Em0nM4stodon I second that sentiment!
