If you have been following me for a while you may remember this post from almost two years ago, where I shared that I had stepped away from almost all social media. Over the last year, I've gradually returned to a few platforms with a new perspective on how I'd like to get value from each of them individually.
Bluesky is the most recent platform that I joined. I didn't want to go back to Twitter for various reasons, but I find Bluesky to be quite close to what I remember Twitter being before I left. My main purpose for joining Bluesky is to stay up to date on developer news and topics. From what I can tell a lot of folks in tech have moved on from Twitter/X to Bluesky or at least post in both places.
If you're not on Bluesky, but looking for a Twitter/X alternative I think it's worth a shot. Make sure to give me a follow!
