Vance is blocked more than Trump? I couldn't have imagined that.

    Why is Vance on bluesky? It's where all the people he hates hang out.

    I strongly suspect that Vance doesn't really hate (or love for that matter) anyone. Vance cares about Vance, and will say and do whatever makes life better for Vance in the short term.

    And lots of tech-oligarchs that pay to make Vance's life better are on Bluesky.

    That's what, 0.6% of their users? A lot, but not as many as it would seem

    I’d say it’s exponential growth for how many users are super active. Like maybe only 5% of users even know about this new thing. And then 1% even care to use the block feature.

    I only use bluesky since some people I used to follow on the birdsite are on there, I don't know if the mastodon instance I'm on is federated with bluesky or not, I don't really use it that often anyway. But I logged on just to block attie and drive up those metrics

    Good that it's decentralized and people can just move on to another provider, since this one is doing this, haha, right?

    Bluesky leadership: slightly worse than JD Vance. It must not have been easy for them to reach that, but what an achievement.

    My man J.D. showing promise as front-runner for the presidency for the gop--with that many people hating on him, you know we're stuck with him for decades to come

    Why would J.D Vance use Bluesky and not X/Truth Social?
