    Based on what I've read recently, no one used Blue Sky anymore.

    No, they are still on X too. I have to swat 2-3 every time I reply to a post.

    I don't personally know anybody who has an account there and actively uses it - by that I mean nobody I know in meatspace does. Some Internet people made a bit of noise and made the point of moving to Blue Sky as a political gesture but that was it. Some organizations I know keep using it, though, but let's face it, people who is trully politically motivated because Twitter and Facebook are evil and satanic and eat kittens are typically on the fediverse instead.

    I think the crash of Threads was even more pronnounced, by the way. Facebook threw a whole lot of money and resources into getting people out of Twitter with Threads and you could find volunteers trying people to switch nearly everywhere. Three months later nobody was talking about it.

    speaking of bots i got banned on FB via ai bots. they have a new AI ban thing. it was wrongfully banning tons of people. people that ran businesses and shops on fb also. that's why i was bored and checking out bluesky

    For my ban i didn't get a reason other than some integrity thing.
    i tried to view the link explaining their values and it was dead. also tried to download my data and it was 1mb. missing all my videos and pics. there's also 1 other account that got banned with my real name and another one i just used with my god daughter.

    my ban got lifted a week ago but i didn't know until today. my other 2 accounts are unbanned but in some glitch. i dont really care because i hate fb and i
    hate ai. i just found it interesting. i prefer telegram.
