Yes. My problem with X is, believe it or not, the content there is still valuable for my job (tech PR) and I rarely see the horrific things there people run from. The social graph also bothers me, as I have over 10k followers accross my accounts.

I’m mainly moving to LinkedIn for biz, and Threads.

For the first 8 years of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, we did not believe that Russia would launch a full-scale attack. Until they did. Have we learned something from this mistake?

Tarkoitatko yksinomaan sillä tavoin hyväksynyt, että on ministerinä tässä hallituksessa? Vai myös jollain muulla suoralla tavalla / lausunnoilla?

If you don’t know Finnish, can you still see this post?

En ole huomannut tätä kielivalikko Blueskyessä, onko se ollut tässä aina?

Kieliongelmaa koitettiin ratkoa @janipenttinen.bsky.social verkkopalvelussa XIHA Life lähes 20 vuotta sitten.

Olisiko optimaalinen ratkaisu vihdoin löytymässä?

What’s happening with TikTok in the U.S. is communism and oligarchy.

Western, democratic and market-oriented solution would be renew regulation that would tackle the scientifically and technically proven risks and negative effects to the society, which TikTok and everyone else would need to follow.

Just wondering about obvious scams - I’ve reported hundreds of posts and ads since 2007, and those reports have never led to removal of the content, as per the report response.

This part can’t possible get worse, can it? I’m personally happy they’ll try another approach.

Folks are mostly missing the forest for the trees re: the recent Meta announcement. Specifically, the focus on the move from fact checking to community notes. There two different changes that are a much bigger deal that have received less focus. 🧵 1/11

Got 1M views on Threads in 30 days.

Bluesky on the other hand… nothing seems to be pulling me here.

X is still really really good information and news source for me, also used by the officials and politicians in Finland - posts quoted in the mainstream media.

Maybe Bluesky just isn’t for me? 🤷‍♂️

Juhani Polkko (@juhani) on Threads Owner, skipper, world citizen 🇫🇮🇺🇦 Global Growth PR sanfrancisco.fi x valosan.com 🚀 Max’s dad 🥰 | Excited by change. 190 Followers.

Ok I’m going to give Threads a change, don’t really have bandwidth to use Bluesky. I’m guessing this is going to be one of those 100+ social media apps that became popular, but will never reach critical mass.

But if you do like it, don’t mind me - just enjoy it :)

IOC has approved Russian athletes to compete in Summer Olympics 2024 in Paris. Despicable.

I would like to hear what the sponsors such as @Airbnb @CocaCola @Deloitte @intel @panasonic @Samsung @Visa @CarrefourGroup @LVMH @AirFranceFR @Cisco @PwC @salesforce think about this.

I would prefer my social media to consists of real people - that’s why there was love at first sight with Facebook (after MySpace).
