I understand. Different strokes for different folks. I mainly use it to read about things I’m interested in like scientific fields such as space exploration.

I’d suggest using Bluesky in ways that most people wouldn’t think about.

For example, you could use it to keep up to date about local events in your geographic area. Another example would be to follow a very unique subject such as macrophotography.

Welcome to Beehaw!

I was a beta tester for Bluesky so I’ve been using it for a long time. I have ZERO problems. As far as I can tell users have 100% control over their feed. What exactly is making your experience ‘not fun’?

I hope most people here realize that most of our societal problems are a direct result of oligarchs. The 1% that rule over everyone else with their unimaginable wealth.

They are very happy keeping the other 99% fighting amongst themselves while they extract even more wealth.

The fight for American democracy is a fight against oligarchs.

And I’m sure some of us could make the case on a global level as well.

How could I forget about the utility of our public library!?!?! Thanks for the reminder and take care.

But it doesn’t help that I live in a conservative area that doesn’t have many intellectual or techy people. I will probably end up driving to a big city for a once or twice a month meeting.

Soon I will have to be doing the same. It’s a little over an hour drive one way. Do you have any recommendations about how to find an interest group?

Sorry to hear that you’re having a tough time. Hang in there brother. This too will pass. You will make it through this.

There is Loops and Skylight.

I used to love that software!

Except for a handful, all federal politicians are bought and paid for and only serve the oligarchs. If money isn’t stripped from politics (see Citizens United), then USA will continue to degrade.

Good.

You are very welcome.

I’m very sorry to hear (again) about your situation and I’m hopeful that several Beeple here will help you out. Take care and, please, keep us informed over the following weeks.

Thank you for sharing and I hope you have a great week!

Yeah. There are a lot of typos.

Funny seeing this here. My brother just called me to tip me off to this exact article. I just finished reading it and had no idea any of this was happening. What a wild reality.

I hadn’t seen a post nor comment from you for a while and was starting to get worried. I’m happy that you are still with us.
