For a variety of escalating reasons, Twitter has become unusable, so we’ve completed moved over to BlueSky. Please check us out!
We’ve actually been on BlueSky for quite some time, but it’s become more active in the recent months, especially since Twitter announced its plans to neuter the block function (and then carry through those plans much to everyone’s dismay). While I know a lot of artists and small businesses have been hesitant to make the movie in fear of losing their audience, I’ve found that between my own experiences and talking with colleagues, Twitter has already become awful for engagement for at least the past year anyway. The only people following my Twitter account lately have been bots, crypto weirdos, and belligerent jerks, and a lot of the other interactions seem juiced, so personally I am happy to leave it all behind. Also Wario64 started posting on BlueSky so there’s little reason to stay on Twitter.
