And bluesky?
I haven’t been asked to give any weird permissions, I just needed an email address and password to sign up. I never used twitter or anything similar other than instagram but I gotta say I’m not too excited about bluesky so far. I signed up when I found out Elon was mad because people were leaving twitter for bluesky. I enjoy seeing Mark Hamill’s and George Takei’s posts, and the most recent JWST pics are awesome, but overall I’m not a big fan. Maybe the way I set it up is suboptimal? Idk, I probably already have enough things sucking away my time and attention.
both don’t have downvote buttons to help sort good/bad content
Thats what lemmy exists for… Not every platform needs voting. For microblogs, which usually represent and individual person, having voting would be a horrible idea because it would allow for brigading of small peoples platforms. With a few hundred people you could make sure that specific accounts or groups of people never reach “top”.
You can, but its not a platform built around individuals, so its harder or just less impactful to bully individuals. If you try to brigade a community, then you are immediately up against everyone that likes that community so its just a system thats more resistant to bullshit.
And neither has shit for content.
So many questions in my mind…
If:
- Shit
As in literal shit, no, and lets try to keep it that way.
- Shit
As nohing of quality, that is absent everywhere. Go read a book, you’re better off. Support an online archive while you are at it. Save ebooks and other cultural media in an offline support and share ot with others
- Shit
As an indication of quantity, I disagree. There is plenty of shit to scroll through and pilling higher every second.
- Shit
As in all of the above… where can you even find that?
Tbf, Reddit does have an infinite shit generator, so long as you are okay with bot reposts.
