All I see are rows of empty questions. Did something scare everyone away? Don’t tell me everything got empty after the last drama happened.

I’m here, I don’t answer to anywhere near all questions I see though.

Nothing but anecdotal, but it kinda looks like Bluesky is becoming a thing. Couple that with a lot of people taking a step back from the world right now.

You’re living under a rock, aren’t you? I keep reading about it nearly everywhere, way more than I would like to.

It’s a microblogging platform, i.e. replacement for Twitter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluesky

brazil jumped from twitter, that was a huge part of it. the election caused another wave.

bluesky is just twitter with faux-federation. it will end up with the same issues eventually when its board decides to recoup.

The dotnet conference is happening right now and I was surprised to hear a couple of the speakers advertising their Bluesky. They had accounts on other social media too, but that seemed to be their main one. These are tech enthusiasts so it makes some sense, but it’s always seemed like an afterthought whenever I’ve seen profiles linked before.

that’s in interesting perspective since i’m seeing the opposite with responses to all the questions.

i go through asklemmy every morning while i’m caffeinating at the start of each day because the questions usually wake me up with a WTF or a TIL.

i must be on their blocked list. lol

also: i wonder at how it weighs on your soul & outlook to feel like you have to curate such a list in a safe space.

I know beggars can’t be choosers and if every rule breaking post was removed this community would probably only have a few posts left- but frankly, most of the questions just aren’t very good
