#MedTwitter it's time for a little story of how the MCAT fines Disabled students for being Disabled and gatekeeps medicine
Buckle up because this is pretty horrific 🧵/20

I'm not joking when I say this. Other people are saying the same. Engagement on Bluesky is so much better than Twitter.

I’ve been on Bluesky for 3 days and no one has told that “they wished I died in a gas chamber.”
So it’s already better than Twitter in that respect.

Bluesky is down and it's still a better social platform than this place

This is Twitter every time I click on a perfectly reasonable tweet and find a cesspool of right wing cranks and crazies at the top of the replies.
This doesn't happen on #Bluesky.
MD or Bust - The Equitable Autist-Knowledge Magpie retweeted
Yeah, that's what this cesspool has become.
I'm moving over to #Bluesky

#Bluesky allows 300 characters, 20 more than X. It also allows you to play Youtube videos in-app no matter how long they are, which is cool. The replies are devoid of those stupid posts from blue check mark accounts. Also cool.

This app is a literal cesspool. Bluesky is so peaceful so that’s where I’ll be most of the time lol.
No ads, no bots, hate accounts are automatically put on a mass block list, people are having fun and not arguing. No agendas being pushed. Like there’s no reason to be here lol.

A million Twitter users moved to BlueSky in the last week.
I’m one of them.
Join us.
It’s like the old Twitter.

Bluesky definitely has early twitter energy. Mostly because it’s unpopulated and underdeveloped, but it’s full of cats. And goddamn is that comforting. It feels like home.

This asshole STILL isn’t suspended.
This is why I’m going to Bluesky, Y’all. I cannot condone or be on an app that allows blatant racism to flourish.
I’ll still be here for a bit but find me here (2nd pic is the obviously racist account):

I’m going to remind people until I am blue in the face that you can block MAGA on Bluesky
