His posts were typically slightly longer than twitter. "Miniblog"? Topic + 2-5 sentences.

Also, he's a published writer... so that's another substantial difference with average twitter.

I have to admit, I had hoped that Bluesky would have countered that 300-character limitation and been a true microblog. I'm not sure why they chose to ape Twitter's limit.
