Anybody using BlueSky?

We are having a hard time understanding what your gripe is.

You are mentioning one side and another and trying to explain each platform leaning. Isn’t this a no no topic?

Not really.

It’s not political, per se.

It’s simply a statement of fact.

Many Lefties are moving to BlueSky and leaving Twitter because of Musk and his closeness to you know who.

See you just did.
You are making assumptions. This is a no no topic.

Not really.

It’s simply a factual statement, supported by the article I posted.

I wasn’t advocating for it or against it, or saying that their reasoning was good or bad, nor was I really discussing a political issue.

The string started by asking who was on BlueSky, someone posted that it had too many far-right types, and I then I rebutted that by posting proof that the OPPOSITE is, in fact, true.

If this were a no-no topic, then the mods would have deleted it and shut it down long ago.

Says who?
Factual?
Say who?
You made an assumption about X supported by an opinion piece.
If you want to explain your feelings about one leaning one way vs another take it somewhere else.

Then HERE is the FACTUAL DATA you requested.

Beware of what you ask for.

If a 500% increase on BlueSky and 115K deactivations on X since the election isn’t an indication that what I said is true…then what would be?

Quote: On Elon Musk’s X, more than 115,000 users deactivated their accounts, the largest-ever mass exit from the platform. At the same time, traffic on Bluesky, a smaller rival to X, began to soar, with daily usage climbing some 500% in the U.S., according to data from Similarweb.

Beware of what?
We are not allowed to talk about…Did you get the memo?

Before of what you ASKED FOR.

You ASKED FOR factual data supporting what I said,…and I PROVIDED it.

ASK…and you SHALL receive.

This isn’t a political topic or discussion.

It’s a discussion about BlueSky…with a dispute of fact that I just posted factual data to settle.

What content do you have inside these articles? Mods can decide if they wish to allow it.

The article is there, it has the factual data you requested…this is NOT a political disucssion…and the mods obviously don’t see a problem with it.

Ergo…we can’t understand what you are griping out.

I only use Facebook and X… way too much work to do to be on all of the social medias AND Coogfans… :rofl:

Yea, there are so many places to waste time now. I dabble in Insta only because some friends kept sending me links from there. Reminds me thats where Threads came from, didn’t have to set up an account it was just created to drive clicks by giving notifications…so effing annoying.

I like spouting off my opinion face to face. I can’t do that with Coog fans. I can’t find any in the 281. That’s why I’m on here.

You should have left it there.

If you have issues with a post, flag it. We don’t need back and forth like this in threads on what’s allowed or not. It’s completely unnecessary. Flag it or pm a mod.

You can’t find any Coogfans in Houston?

281 is outside the Beltway. Not real Houstonians.

Not many that want to talk UH sports. At least not where I live. I know maybe 5-6 neighbors. None of them know anything about UH. I don’t see hardly any UH gear worn at HEB, Pappas Bros, the service waiting room at Beck and Masten. And I pimp it at least two or three times a week. I did have a cute, young thang throw me a Cougar paw in line at the Starbucks on 1960 and say, “Yeah Coogs!” about three weeks ago. She actually looked like she could have been a Cougar Doll. I single-handedly started the Friday Jersey Day in our office. I’m the only Coog though.
