While some may see this as good for Bluesky, I bet this is the floodgates opening to bots and algorithmically boosted harmful content. Good luck everyone on there!

Threads default settings are like an open fire hose of rage bait and negativity spraying directly into your face. It's pretty wild without some manual feed pruning.

I've been using Mastodon and it's a pleasant change of pace. I've heard of some spam happening there but I think responsive admins and the lack of algorithmic feeds really reduces their reach.

Mastodon’s the best social media I’ve used. I’ve curated such a quality feed.
