- Reposted by B"Why did you come to this time? To warn us?" The time traveler laughed. "Why would anyone listen to me?" "You're from our future-" "No, I'm from a different timeline, a different future. I'm a refugee." "To here? Now?" "It looks fucked right now, but this is the timeline that pulls through."
- Reposted by BSomebody yelled at me for posting about Ganymede instead of /the state of things/ last night. I know we’re (almost) all on the same page here, but a Bluesky without cute cats, science facts, and dumb jokes would be bad for everyone.

- Reposted by BIn 2024, Bluesky grew from 2.9M to 25.9M users. With this growth came anticipated challenges in scaling Trust & Safety, from adding workstreams to adapting to new harms. In our newly published 2024 Moderation Report, we share details on what the year looked like for our Trust & Safety team.

- i used to be so excited to update to the new version of my phone's or laptop's operating system, but now i'm mostly annoyed by the update and not excited for new features - have the updates changed, or have i?
- Reposted by BIt's natural to feel frustrated and tired and sick of all of the fucking effort to try to change the system, we just want to get our work done, focus on fun tech problems, make some money and go home to our families. We ALL feel that way, you are not special! Toughen up, guys.

- Reposted by BIn contrast to cynical takes about how of course companies don't care about DEI etc, Dan presents the argument that actually caring about employees and creating fun environments is part of what winning looks like. Every leader should remind themselves of this.

- Reposted by BFew people even know about this; when people are asked in surveys how child mortality has changed the majority says it has stagnated or increased. If you consider that many don't know about humanity's biggest achievement, then it's not surprising that many are so pessimistic about our future.

- Reposted by BSocial media is in desperate need of innovation. Meta is only letting you have a slice of control over what you see because Bluesky is here building for you.
- We wrote on Saturday about how Meta is going all-out to meet the threat of Bluesky: wapo.st/3OrYxBj Today they took another step— finally allowing users to set their default feeds to a chronological “following” feed.

- Reposted by BOk I am back since @katzish.bsky.social said this was the cool kids table. Judge me if you insist, but also still on Threads since I like it too, especially the flower arranging videos. Deleting Twitter Thursday after abandoning it months ago since First Lady Elonia’s new TOS sucks.
- Reposted by BQuick intro for new followers! I’m an independent researcher, writer, and lapsed software engineer. I critically cover the tech industry (and particularly the crypto industry) in my Citation Needed newsletter. I also write a lot about digital sovereignty and the possibility of a better web.
- Reposted by Bso many new people here, welcome! 👋 we've been collecting feedback that we see people posting — what else do you have questions about? we're updating a bunch of our support docs / user guides and want to make sure we hit the topics that are top of mind!
- this is super cool! one idea it gives me: if you don’t see a list for something you love, make the list and add just yourself to it so that other people can find you and then you can add them to the list!
- At last, there's a searchable directory of Bluesky starter packs, courtesy of @mubashariqbal.com! Just one more way third-party developers are helping to make this place better. Search starter packs by keyword, and sort by "Uses" to see which ones people are finding the most helpful
