I know it's a minority opinion with this crowd, but sports has such a large presence on X and I don't know why it's lagging moving to BlueSky. I like the categories on this site but "sports" doesn't even make the cut while "eSports" does.

There was a thread on Reddit recently about how NFL corporate has demanded teams delete their BSky accounts, because of a contractual relationship with X.

I don't think it's a contractual agreement with X.

The NFL has lots of weird rules, apparently one of them is teams can only create accounts at "approved" social media sites. Probably only a matter of time before it's "approved".

> sports moving to BlueSky Reddit communities are (all of a sudden and by odd coincidence) trying to will that into happening by delisting anything from X.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but it's not an odd coincidence. It's an explicit response to Musk's Nazi salute.

What happened to mastodon? We don’t just want to move from one walled garden to another.

I think Mastodon will have its place, but won’t grow much. BlueSky will grow more instead of Mastodon. Reasons:

- BlueSky is mostly centralized and easier to understand. No server choice stuff

- BlueSky has the better name

- BlueSky has the cleaner UI

I went to the homepage for the first time. First post was someone saying they want to be a designer for the campaign that had Waltz name on it. Then you have Patton Oswald tell people never be friends with Nazis because they have Nazi friends.

I decided to visit twitter homepage but it asked me to signin.

I went to the homepage for Mastodon. It had comments about new science discoveries, tech, some politics but more thoughtful if not humor full.

I went to threads and they had a variety of posts in different languages. Top link: Tiktok style guy from Japan who does wall pushups. A newspaper cartoon and netflicks infograph follow.

I'm not sure why we are not all on Mastodon it's similiar content to this site.

Bluesky is getting so much hype but the frontpage content is a tarpool of vile content like someone trained an ai on salon.com and decided to spit out the worst nonsense.
