BlueSky is a new social media platform that is not controlled by just one company. It gives users more control over what they see and how they interact with others. Instead of being pushed content based on algorithms, BlueSky lets people create and follow content more freely. It focuses on privacy, openness, and creating a space where people can have real conversations without all the drama and distractions. It’s like a fresh start for social media, built with the user in mind.
The TLDR; version is – I’m still going to be on twitter/x but I’ll also be on BlueSky now and you should join me.
So, why am I joining BlueSky? If you’ve been keeping an eye on the social media landscape lately, you’ve probably noticed a bit of a shift. With changes happening on platforms like Twitter (or X, or whatever it’s called today), many of us are looking for something new, fresh, and perhaps a little less chaotic. I’ve spent a long time building my community, with almost fifty thousand followers on X, but sometimes it feels like a space that just isn’t quite the same anymore. So, in the spirit of evolving and keeping things interesting, I’m branching out and finding a new digital home on BlueSky.
Now, let’s be clear — I’m not leaving behind my amazing followers. I’m just exploring new opportunities to connect with like-minded people and to embrace the energy of a platform that feels a little more aligned with the kind of conversations I want to have. If you’re already on BlueSky, let’s make sure we stay connected, because this is where I’m heading next.

ToggleWhat Do I Like About BlueSky?
For one, there’s a refreshing simplicity to it. No cluttered timelines or toxic comment sections — it feels like a platform built for thoughtful engagement rather than clickbait chaos. And honestly? That’s something we could all use right about now. Plus, the idea of decentralized social media is something I’m vibing with. The concept of giving users more control over their experience? Chef’s kiss. It’s a fresh take that feels like it’s going in the right direction.
What really stood out to me, though, was the tone of conversations happening on BlueSky. People are here to connect, share ideas, and build communities. There’s a sense of openness without the pressure of navigating a noisy, algorithm-driven feed. I like the idea of being part of a space that values quality over quantity — where users follow users because they genuinely want to hear what’s being said.
The Shift from X (Twitter)
Now, let’s talk about X — I’ve been there, done that. My nearly 50,000 followers on X have been part of my journey, and I appreciate all the meaningful conversations, insights, and connections we’ve shared. But lately, I’ve noticed a shift. It’s like the energy of the platform has changed in a way that doesn’t quite reflect the values I hold.
No, I’m not diving into politics or drama. Let’s just say there’s been a bit of a mass exodus of users who’ve been hopping off the platform in search of something with a bit more of a community feel. X used to be a place where we could engage in uncensored conversations, and explore ideas in a space that wasn’t oversaturated with noise. But now? It feels like the conversation is shifting away from those genuine connections to something that’s harder to navigate. That’s when I decided to test out BlueSky. Actually it was a personal recommendation from my friends at a certain podcast that I highly, highly recommend.
So, Why BlueSky For Me?
The platform feels more user-focused and there is a commitment to meaningful engagement, and that’s something that resonates with me. The creators and users I follow are sharing sexy videos, memes, creative thoughts and engaging in constructive dialogue.
For my followers who aren’t quite on BlueSky yet, don’t worry — I’m still keeping my X presence alive. But for those who are on BlueSky, I’m already making connections and starting to follow users who are producing the kind of content that excites me. I want to interact with people who share the same values, create the same energy, and are all about meaningful engagement, not just chasing numbers. If you’re on BlueSky, come find me. Let’s keep the good times rolling. If you follow me, I promise I’ll follow you back.
