The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

Bluesky Febbruary 2024. Bluesky December 2024.

An illustration of what Bluesky looked like back in Febbruary 2024, having many users but still a small number compared to other sites online.

There is a fox in the middle with his baguette, few birds wandering arround in a vast white space.

Things seems good and not busy.

An illustration showing how Bluesky is to this date (December 2024)

The white space is totally filled with blue birds, the fox in the middle is surprised by such a huge influx of new users, the baguette slowly dragged down, almost off screen.

Bluesky grew a lot, going from hundred thoushands to millions in few months.
