Moreover, Bluesky already feels a bit like how social media would look if a non-TERF version of the Guardian was running it. It’s very liberal, very centrist, and very ‘don’t rock the boat too much’.

We’ll be keeping an eye on this, and for the moment we’ll be posting to both Twitter and Bluesky. We look forward to engaging with you wherever you end up.

"we're not ready to choose between the cop bar and the Nazi bar, so for now we'll keep hanging out in both."

Of course they don't mention fediverse as an option. Of course.

I thought they were the same bar

Why do so many people think they MUST be heard? 😆 That’s one of the reasons I deleted Reddit. Too many weirdos thinking that I owed them a debate or something whenever I commented something they disagreed with. It happened on Twitter too but I got rid of that when musk announced that he was going through with the purchase.

Ideally everyone would be able to set up rules as to who and what they see.

Something like (pseudo syntax initially like SQL, but went off track):

IF sum(this.poster.posts.karma) < -100 OR this.score < -10 OR sum(this.poster.opinions.rating WHERE this.poster.opinions.source IN me.friends) < 0 THEN false ELSE true END.

I DISAGREE with you. YOU ARE NOW OBLIGATED TO ENTER AN EPIC DEBATE TO THE DEATH WITH ME BECAUSE REACHING A CONSENSUS IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THE INTERET!!!!!!!!

(((((((((((((((((/s (in case it wasn't obvious))))))))))))))))))

The reason people post on these sites is to make themselves heard I guess. You just have to ignore or block your way into the level of interaction you're comfortable with.

Okay man, we get it. You like Bluesky. You've posted at least 10 articles of people moving from X to Bluesky.

Articles about this will continue to be posted until moral improves

Strong shill op for blue sky is underway no doubt, i can't tell if it is organic since they are getting large user inflows or jay graber is funding these endless fake news headlines.

we will never know... but we do know that corpos love them shill ops to gain market share.

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 10 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

just say X-odus

do terfs support maternity leave?

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 14 hours ago

Probably for themselves only.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world -4 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Can we stop using the term "TERF"? It doesn't mean anything at this point. The transphobic assholes on X certainly aren't radical feminists.

[–] LuckingFurker@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

We need to make FARTs - Feminism Appropriating Reactionary Transphobes - stick instead

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 4 points 17 hours ago

Excellent

I'd like to call em that, but this has changed my mind.

[–] GuyDudeman@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

OMG I have to use that.

[–] banghida@lemm.ee 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

What is a TERF?

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 7 points 15 hours ago

Trans Excluding Radical Feminist. It's a rabbit hole and it's not much fun past the first 100 meters.
