How long until DU is shut down?

[Dave says]

38. Please not BlueSky !!

BS “suspended” me for “suspicious activity” months ago. They have not provided me with any more information than that.

I’ve sent a few emails asking what’s up but the couple of emails I received in response are boilerplate if not bot driven. I only posted there 2 times, although I lurked there for awhile (I lurked here at DU for a year after 9-11 before signing up).

I was using a Norton VPN when I got suspended and saw on Reddit that that sometimes causes problems (but not suspensions). I did have way more followed vs. followers, maybe that contributed? But that was because, when I signed up, I used several “starter packs” offered by those I recognized from other places (DU, Substack, etc.). But, due to a lack of forthrightness, and ghosting my inquiries, they have de facto banned me.

So don’t use BlueSky as the alternative (although, despite my problems with them, it is a good site).
