Unrelated: so is blue sky just a total Twitter ripoff? Man, at least get your own ui, that’s embarrassingUNC coaches finding new homes
Chip Lindsey to Nebraska

SOURCE: North Carolina offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey is set to become the new OC at Michigan. @MZenitz first reported the move.bsky.app
Sorry, Nebraska promoted one of their defensive coaches to be the new DC; I had Nebraska in the brain
Bluesky was created by the original founder and creator of Twitter fyi
And he left the board already and tells people to use X haha
Bluesky is basically what Twitter was before it became awful and with more moderation tools.
Yep, I was on Twitter (X) for years but finally left it last month. There’s been quite the exodus from there. Russian bots and troll farms have created a really obnoxious atmosphere.
It has really been a fascinating thing to watch as the echo chambers evolve with the Russians influencing twitter and the Chinese influencing Bluesky. People are just people. They believe what they want to believe that reinforces what they want to be true. Even when its wrong. They look for confirmation bias and echo chambers are a naturally according thing. Even when they both have 50 shades of right and wrong, what they want to be true is believed and what is wrong is never spoken about. The omissions are worse than the lies
We are all being manipulated. Some maybe more than others. I’ve left all the main social media platforms. I may try Bluesky next year. I’ll wait and see. People report they are actually able to have civil discussions on it like they used to on Twitter. The straw that broke the camels back for me on X was seeing people make violent threats and not getting banned.
Blue Sky is just liberal Parler.
Well, if liberal means it’s more civil than X I’ll take liberal every time
I think this is what you actually meantWell, if liberal means it’s more echo chamber than X I’ll take liberal every time
You can use Bluesky pretty easily without ever seeing any form of political content. Most of the big sports journalists and reporters are there now. Being able to view their updates in a chronological timeline without an algorithm trying to bait me into something else is a godsend.
It is easier for me to find some of the sports content I care about, with much less spam.
Don't we all ... I mean ... wouldn't we all ... I mean ... nevermind.
The entire search process has been hilarious to watch unfold. Nobody is aligned, and they have been drumming up ole Bill as a way to draw "star power" interest in the vacancy. It has failed spectacularly to the point that they are almost forced to hire Bill now or start begging people to apply for the HC job. The number of talented names they have ran off from this job is amazing.
So what you're saying is that TFG is now their only hope?
