Unlike a lot of the folks I follow on here, I think criticism of Bluesky is good and healthy and not a reason to mob up and pummel the heretics. That said, it's very funny that someone complained about not having any arguments on Bluesky and now their experience of Bluesky is literally nothing but.

I feel like that's a normal and expected (and hilarious) result of making that specific criticism of *any* platform you're on.

If your experience with bluesky is "nothing but arguments" you're doing a shitty job managing your follows, blocking assholes, and using customizability tools

What was that line from Justified, if you wake up in the morning and run into an asshole, you had a bad start to the day, but if you wake up in the morning and everyone you run into is an asshole maybe you’re the asshole.

I think criticism is fine, it's just out of line with my experience (granted I am a nobody who gets little "engagement" which makes it different) but also specifically Bsky critics fixate on comments other people simply ignore. there's always gonna be someone who doesn't get the joke! anywhere!

Not sure why the semi-famous don't recognize that they'll catch flak because of their semi-fame but that's not the experience for the rest of us. I survive happily with one or two likes a week and the very rare reply.

Them: "I don't like it here, Bluesky is nothing but an echo chamber for the left, no one argues about things" Bluesky users: *immediately starts arguing with them* Them: "Omg why is everyone arguing with me, I don't like it here because everyone is arguing"
