There should be a word for it: the feeling of disappointment / sadness when you realize interesting people you got to know on the Fediverse have since decamped to Bluesky.

Of course, there must be valid reasons for it. Still, this makes me a little sad.
I have a dormant Bluesky account and from time to time I check in and see them posting so much there.
Not me. Why? I don't trust a place funded by Crypto Bros -> https://www.blockchaincapital.com/portfolio
I'm 1000% ALL IN on the Fediverse, not going anywhere

@_elena I just ask people there, who really don't see a problem / risk in Bluesky, to turn on the fediverse bridge and tell them they can follow me via https://bsky.app/profile/erikkemp.voltnederland.org which is just a bridge of my account here

@lagrandecedre I was afraid also to not connect on Mastodon the right way (mostly not doing enough). But I decided I don't have to force myself to post. I just try to boost posts that I feel like they should be shared to others here.
Good engagement doesn't have to be forced, repetiive or loud, just genuine.
It also saves everybody's time and peace of mind. -

@nimloth thanks. That's how I've been going so far. Sort of feels like letting the current take me...
