Sharing over here as well. I'm joining the Bluesky board to help provide them guidance. I remain a supporter of all experiments in decentralized social media, and will write more on that later. I still have high hopes for Mastodon/ActivityPub as well...
@mmasnick I wonder what will come out of it. Good luck! Unfortunately, after four months of inactivity, I downloaded it again yesterday, and still I don't find it interesting enough to continue using it.
Hopefully, you'll not abandon Mastodon!
@sharan what do you find is not interesting enough about it for you to stay?
@mmasnick hm...
First of all, the android app is abysmal. The web interface is pretty neat, but the app really could use a lot of work.
Somehow, with custom feeds , I find it more confusing than Mastodon with its servers. Also, numerous feeds (I know I don't have to use them and I could treat them like custom lists) make the app feel too busy.
Last but not the least, almost non existent user base from my country, they're still on Twitter. I am a journalist and a writer, so I tend to promote my work on socials.
Anything else for the next board meeting, feel free to ask!
