The fact that your whole community was insular enough to move to an invite-only app is exactly what worries me about Bluesky. It's just a bunch of cliques. Is that sustainable? We'll see.

I do like the technical vision, a lot. But I haven't been able to try it out because any time I felt the desire to look, nobody could actually link me to a post or a feed. So I never achieved the required activation energy to even look at it, nevermind adding it to my doomscrolling repertoire or signing up to the thing.

Opening up the posts is a good first step to sustainable adoption. Now next time people are mad at Twitter they'll have an outlet instead of being met with a brick wall when they finally get the urge to try something new.

I was ready to move. You need an invite? I don't have an invite. Really? Yes. Here's my middle finger. Twitter/X for life!!

As I wrote in another comment, it's a clique that I moved with, yes. Related to urban planning, cycling infrastructure etc in my country. If anything, the move has been nice. No longer daily death threats from car drivers thinking that's a proportionate response for us advocating for a new bicycle lane..

Being a small group of course made the transition easier. Most of us didn't use Twitter to follow all kinds of stuff, just mostly these things.

And while being a clique, with no outside influences, can be bad, the "influences" you now get from blue checks on X isn't anything worth having. Just abuse.
