I have seen a drama increase in followers

If there's one thing a social media site loves, its a drama increase.

It’s a big blow to Twitter that people are finding someplace, anyplace , else to go.

Honestly, more than anything, it feels like an indictment of Threads. That was supposed to be the big party spot for creatives, journalists, and D-list celebrities following the burn out of Twitter. But modern Threads just feels like the worst kind of Hype-House crossbred with LinkedIn.

BlueSky feels a lot more like a vintage '00s social media site, which is all people really wanted. Hope it survives its own popularity better than Twitter did. But for now, life is good.
