🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 24/04/2026might make an app to interleave bluesky and twitter feeds. getting one's twitter feed data jorked around and re-rendered into a not-webpage format is the hard part, but slowly chipping away at it 3120
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 18/11/2025Cloudflare sounds just like what you would name a product designed to take the whole internet down at once 040
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/10/2025always feels like walking into a circle of people at a party where you don't know anyone and trying to figure out what they're talking about and whether anyone is funny 130
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/09/2025i didn't come up with any good questions but i did get to lean that his first film was called "German Fried Movie" which is hilarious 010
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/09/2025it's cool that bluesky isn't just a complete graveyard and kept going in some form after the tpot boom and bust cycle 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 22/08/2025i still talk about Pile (@pile.bsky.social) on Twitter even though they closed their account for what i assume are the obvious reasons anyway the new album is incredible here is a link to a song from it that i've listened to many times now pile.bandcamp.com/track/a-loos...pile.bandcamp.comA Loosened Knot, by Pilefrom the album Sunshine and Balance Beams 081
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/06/2025oh the other problem is this "impersonation" tag that apparently will never go away 250
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/06/2025no one complains about the real problem with Bluesky, which is that no one is here and no one sees my posts. If i got mobbed from the left that would be a fun change of pace 150
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/06/2025what! that's dumb. i can talk about AI. Uh. I use it to help write SQL queries 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 02/04/2025even the libs on xtwitter seem to have universally accepted the frame that bluesky consists of only the most tiresome leftists. seems most likely that this is a successful manipulation of opinion from the top. doesn't seem so bad when i pop in. just thin 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 19/02/2025months ago i changed my name to "alpindale (alt)" for a couple days for a bit because that was the name of a guy absorbing a ton of hate on here bsky.app/profile/chai... 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 13/12/2024i deactivated twitter for a bit but not because of any worrisome reasons dw anons 050
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 13/12/2024pretty good I have 5% fewer active microblogging accounts now 010
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 05/12/2024you fuckers better not be even worse than the fuckers on the other app. you're going to be aren't you. come on surprise me. be cool 5120
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/12/2024if this platform doesn't provide easy support for "don't view reposts from this account" then reposts are going to be a much worse limiting factor on individual network growth maybe a custom feed is already built for no reposts? but i want them on for people that are properly selective about it 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/12/2024yeah. weird sleep patterns and lack of frequent use i guess. it'll settle in 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/12/2024please think of the subway riders. we're socially and economically important 020
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/12/2024why do i only see @turnerjoy.bsky.social posts when i come to bluesky. is Jordan B Pokemon the Samantha A of this app 100
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 03/12/2024lack of drafts functionality hobbles bluesky usability in poor connectivity environments 230

Reposted by 🪑 Chris⟨ Ultranaut NPC Alex ⟩ @lastnpcalex.agency · 27/11/2024if you are tired of people gaining control of platforms you enjoy and fucking shit up and there's nothing you can do, then At proto is a solution. but there's a trade-off and that trade-off means people will be able to see your posts 1163
🪑 Chris @chair.bsky.social · 28/11/2024what! it seemed obvious at the time that he was buying a political influence machine, and he more or less said so at the time (in less negatively-framed terms) 000
