I had never been a member of an underground movement before. I’d seen films, of course, which made getting involved look both risky and somewhat tedious. But the funny thing about desperate measures is that, by the time you take them, they often seem like the only reasonable course of action. All this is by way of saying I’ve joined Bluesky.
It’s a lot like Twitter, in that it has a newsfeed, similar functionality and is, as far as I can tell, populated largely by FT journalists. What distinguishes Bluesky, at least for the moment, is its users.
