We are currently seeing that some are indeed leaving X, but are going to #Bluesky. We do not consider this to be a sustainable solution, as we expect Bluesky to develop in a similar way to Xitter. Our experiences clearly show that true social media only exist if they are operated under the control of the users, like the services in the #Fediverse.

we have experimentally bridged our Mastodon account with Bluesky, so you should be able our Maastricht Open Science news on Bluesky too now: bsky.app/profile/oscmaastricht…
