Bug accounts, or big? Bug as in programming?

ive been enjoying bluesky more than twitter. i just wish more bug accounts would migrate. i post on both platforms with a script that i wrote and my engagement on bluesky on a per follower basis is far higher.

Lol, yes that’s a very good point.

I tried Bluesky but just couldn’t get into it. Same with Mastodon. I like Lemmy because long-form posts/comments are more interesting to me. I’m liking Threads, too.

What would you say makes threads better than the other mikroblogging services?

I think one of the main reasons is that a lot of tech people on Twitter ended up on there. Mastodon originally filled that spot for me, but I found that a bunch of people that moved from Twitter to Mastodon ended up abandoning their accounts (or very rarely posting) a few months later.
It’s also probably the largest Fediverse instance, as users can opt in to sharing their posts to the Fediverse.
I still don’t use it often, though. I don’t spend a lot of time on any social networks (or similar services) any more.

Mastodon has shitty clients, the servers are slow and the communication across them is buggy, and a ton of stuff is still just broken. most of the time I’ll open the client on Android and just stare for 15 seconds at a spinning “wait” symbol, and then I’ll close it and not look at it for the rest of the day.

I like the long form posts and I also find those sort of sites way too fast-moving to keep up with.
Maybe it’s because I’m an old man who grew up on BBSes, but forums are much more my speed.
