I asked chatgpt about the first 2 years of Twitter versus the first 2 of Blue Sky. Twitter signed up 1 million users in the first two years. Blue Sky had 38.5 in the first 2 years. Yes social media was newer in 2006 but Blue Sky is gained relevancy at a much faster rate.

Full disclosure, I checked your profile (lots of abhorrent Zionists out there who objectively cheer on genocide then call pushback antisemitism) and it seems like a lot of the hate posts you've spotlighted have been taken down, so...! There's that at least. Has not been my experience elsewhere.
