    Influencers? Dont need that lol. The only reason I miss Twitter sometimes is sports stuff. There are sports people on BS, but not enough team accounts are super active. There are a few UF sports pundits and writers, but I don't think any of the UF sports post much, or at all, for example. National sports is pretty good, if you are into the Mina Kimes, Spencer Hall, Pablo Torre types.

    Bluesky's 'lack of diversity of thought' driving users back to X: Mark Cuban

    Mark Cuban says Bluesky has “grown ruder and more hateful” and warned that a “lack of diversity of thought” on the platform is pushing users back to Elon Musk’s X, the social network formerly known as Twitter.

    The billionaire entrepreneur and longtime tech enthusiast had been one of Bluesky’s most visible champions, but now says the platform’s predominantly left-leaning user base has created a hostile echo chamber where dissenting or even mildly nuanced opinions are met with outrage.

    “The lack of diversity of thought here is really hurting usage,” Cuban wrote this week in a series of critical posts.

    MAGA: Diverse opinions welcome

    Liberals: Prefer the comfort of living in a cult. Diverse opinions give them cognitive dissonance. Denial of reality is their mother's milk. When they call MAGA a cult it's simply confession by projection
