Honestly, not at all. I don't mind alternative viewpoints at all, and i enjoy sensible debate - my main criticism of bluesky so far is it's all a bit too nice - its people posting photos of owls and sunsets and saying how much they liked the Wicked movie (although would prefer it if th two leads were paid the same)

What twitter is rapidly becoming is certainly not the "truth" in the past 24 hours I've seen posts calling all black people criminals, and saying they should be sent back to Africa - and saying equally awful antisemitic things (not criticism of Israel - genuine old school "the jews deserve what they get as they are controlling everything etc" type of stuff. And any replies to these things are drowned out by 200 memes posted by bots - it's just unusuable these days. If it doesn't make some significant changes soon I predict it will die a very quick death.
