George Conway's personal post-mortem (from Bluesky)

‪George Conway‬ ‪@gtconway.bsky.social‬

I’m getting too many texts from friends, saying, “are you okay?” It’s lovely of them to ask. But I’m just fine. I can’t say the same for a lot of other people and things.

If I seem quieter over the next few weeks, it is going to be in part because I vowed that after the election, no matter what the result, I’d get off Twitter/X, get my news more directly from news sources (instead of using social media as a newsfeed), and write a book.

But also I’m partly going to be in that GPS app mode: “recalculating route.” There’s more to be done, and we will all figure out what that must be.

5. There's an ongoing mass exodus taking place from Twitter to Bluesky by liberals, journos, politicians and even govt

I've been having trouble finding liberal (DU-worthy) content on Twitter for the last few days - it's because the people I follow are leaving and most say they're heading to Bluesky. I'm still monitoring Twitter for breaking news, etc.

Dump Twitter if you haven’t already. Bluesky setup is very similar to X, and it doesn’t promote Fascism and enrich Elmo the Fascist.

I also followed George Conway, but I don't think he'll be
posting much.

I love Bluesky.
