@npub1897…x35d @npub1f8l…7frq you mean, they don't want to listen to any other opinions than theirs, and as a result not hearing the opposite opinion's arguments only leads them to believe they're the only one in the right because they've just never known (or wanted to know) the other, or they just don't want to accept that said opposite has any validity at all?

@npub1f8l…7frq by emphasizing one's freedom to listen (implying the freedom not to listen), suddenly it can be way easier to ignore and never think about offensive (to one) thoughts.
but I think you're right, to my dismay. Bluesky appeals to the mind that is looking for a more exact Twitter copycat, those who have not yet thought of jumping ship to a place where these mentalities do not apply, and this network is left fractured between two thoughts.

For Bluesky to feel refreshed, truly appealing to everyone, it needs not to specialize, capitalize on the former like it currently is, in tandem limiting what its audience is. Only then, when they appeal to everyone no matter their beliefs, will it start to feel new, proper, warm and consoling.
I didn't leave Twitter only to be reminded of it.
I didn't agree with human rights just to give anyone more permissions just because of a decision on their feeling of love.
I didn't keep out of politics just to be told what is right and wrong.

I realize the problem on this network, socially speaking.
It's either patronizing, overblown, saturated positivity in being repeated the same things over and over like a mantra (think Russia/Ukraine war, LGBT stuff, anti-Google sentiments, usual "normie" things like that) with a hint of lighthearted posting, poking fun at things, but very rarely are they not related to any of the above to make a stern point completely forgoing the lighthearted nature (think shitposting, on that side it's often to advertise e.g. trans sentiments, and oft ruins the joke in itself to some because they're looking for something fresh, unsaid, a joking look on certain things and they instead receive a reminder to stay in line. rarely are shitposts from there unrelated to said "casual" mantras).
On the other hand ("alt fedi", "dark fedi" as the former side will dissonantly refer to it), it's more of the same thing, only it's negativity. It's more offensive, almost, because it's all so unconventional thoughts. Where no one is happy for living as is, due to a hint of capitalism/communism, or because it's however related to the "tranny" thought, or maybe it's just not "free" enough, in what they enjoy. It's much more serious, and useless reminders of young "normie" lifestyles' correlation to self harm, to not offensively name it, or uninspiring worship of a personality or ideology from the right is about as lighthearted as it gets here too.
My problem? I don't fit anywhere in the two. Either it's avant-garde ideologies that already exist, looking for even more power or rights, passed off as if it were an unheard of, fresh idea, or it's grim, negative feelings, sometimes of yore, that require an entire refactor of our current society. I dislike either.

@npub1unu…zsng not yet. Got lucky when someone passed one to me.
Also, you likely don't want to go there.

Bluesky still is an echo chamber composed of people who think they're tough shit for having a leftist opinion, disliking the same things as usual and repeatedly screaming what's already been said before, with no opportunity to hear or discover any other voices.
So it's Twitter.

ideally if I'd want to do DAW stuff I should probably get a MIDI keyboard of sorts, the Arturia MiniLab 3 looks like just the right thing for what I'd do.

server is staying at around 150 KiB/s max when idling, which is probably not that big of a deal but I am concerned to see that number grow over time and cause more and more issues. perhaps I am being paranoid however. I'm now following 24 accounts across 14 instances, and that's not it yet.
