alt Hacker NewsSlight off topic but interesting that the post has similar interaction stats (replies and reposts/quotes) between Twitter and Bluesky except the likes which are 3x higher on the former https://files.catbox.moe/82x7ue.jpeg

Luckily with Bluesky you can link to a post and everyone can see the replies.
Interesting - most Bluesky accounts, especially those related to gaming, are reporting higher engagement stats on Bluesky, at least relatively if not absolutely.
I don’t think it’s that surprising; Bluesky is quite big amongst the audience who cares about this sort of thing, and the author isn’t a bluetick so will have visibility relatively suppressed on Twitter.
I heard about this incident from a link shared from Bluesky first, which is significant because most of my social circle tends to use twitter
BlueSky seems to be far less like-oriented. They aren't just a good metric of engagement there. People read and move on. If it might be helpful to others, they will repost, and that's it.
Besides, with 26K followers on BlueSky vs 173K on Twitter, I'd say the engagement on the former is significantly higher any way.
