It's already way better than Twitter. Just UI and the general UX is now miles better. It even loads properly! I genuinely think I got acclimatized to Twitter getting slowly worse. Lots of Twitter users haven't made the switch so far or primarily post on Twitter, so I'll be there too as long as some of them remain there.
Yeah same the "new post" circle is half way off the bottom of the screen and hard to click on my phone.
It feels jankier than twitter BUT: I left twitter a couple months in to musks reign and well before the site started actually falling apart, so idk how the jank is today.
What's your fediverse handle? Not sure if I'm following you yet. I'm @flabberghaster@mas.to
im still a weirdo who divides their online presence up. my posts won't be so alluring if they're attached to a face
Honestly the jank is worse. I experience lots of lag or the app sending me a mile upwards, I got banned for absolutely no reason - I wasn't even beefing with anyone - and there hasn't been any follow back from X since I appealed their decision with their support, users are rate limited now so you can no longer search users' tweets or their likes, media and replies.
I tried to make a new account but couldn't get it to work. It might work now, but at least I can read tweets while banned.
I don't have the problem of No Body on Blusky since some of my favorite twitter people quit the service formerly known as Twitter and hang out on Blusky instead. So just from my POV there are people to talk to there. That's true of Twitter for the moment as well but the attrition is real and visible. I mostly just view specific users to see whether there's any updates.
I only use Blusky on my phone so I can't comment on the desktop UX but to me Twitter is weirdly laggy making, e.g., long threads impossible to read without constant reloading and losing your place.
Really my problems with Twitter are the banal ones, the ghost towning, degradation of latency and UX and threats of further downgrades. The political aspects of the enshittefication haven't been enough to stop being a habitual user. I remember taking a month off because I was too compulsive at Twitter, but I am no longer under any threat of that.
bsky is neat but I'm still on twitter mostly. I've spent so many years getting my twitter feed to the exact level of deranged I want, with minimal debate club shit, and I completely lose that on bsky. there's so much shit that people spend days discussing on there that no one would care about on my twitter.
Twitter banned me for no discernible reason and I couldn't manage to make another account so it has spared me from debate clubs. Mysterious are His ways!
I want you to know how much restraint it's taking for me to not mention the Fediverse right now

I feel the opposite, no more vimlike bindings and no more ctrl-click makes Bluesky unusable for me.
I do love that pages seem light and load nearly instantly, but I just can't use it
I also have the same problem of Nobody Using It, but thankfully everyone I care about is on jstpst or my fediverse so I don't mind hehe
