Yea, I really want bluesky,mastodon to succeed in the sense of actually having people who are talking about things that I am interested in and more connections in general.

I would also wish to point out lemmy is an interesting project too.

I don't really use twitter anyway but I was frequent on bluesky but didn't really get any responses whatsoever sometimes so I ended up not using it either.

Hackernews and some other forums are honestly just about it for me at a certain point but I do wish to relook at bluesky and mastodon
