Okay folks. Very serious question for all of Bluesky. Are we still calling them 'Skeets' or are we just calling them 'Tweets'?

I just say posts. Nice general purpose term as multiple social media groups begin to use the infrastructure underpinning Bluesky for their own services.

post works fine, when I say "skeet" I'm talking something very different

I just call them tweets or posts. Skeets just seemed like "lol do you get it"

Skeets or Posts. Tweets belong to Twitter

I just call them posts. Never liked the word "Skeet" because of the sexual innuendo it's connected with.

that's the whole point. skeet it is.

I don't like sexual innuendos. I'm Ace. That stuff grosses me out, man.

Skeets is far too close to “skids”

Interchangably. I often say "posts" for a more universal term. I will use "skeets" for comedic effect.

The site audience started saying "skeets" as an inside joke of some kind, but due to its apparent meaning, it was NEVER going to stick for too long. It's just posts here. I do wish the site itself was able to come up with SOME kind of play on the word Post though.

I go with posts usually. Unless I want to be annoying, then I go with skeets

I've disconnected skeet from its sexual meaning at this point Because like, tbh, I've heard it used in that context... twice, ever? But skeet just means post now for me. I think it's dumb, but that's why I love it. Skeet!!

Nobody calls them skeets. Nobody worth a damn, anyway.

skeets sometimes, posts other times. never tweets. it's so app-specific.

I just say posts, I personally don't think I can use "Skeets" in any capacity.
