Tried it, still prefer Mastadon. The amount of shitposts or unrelated posts is incomparable to that of meta's threads, but still quite high to my taste.

Interesting choice for the thumbnail picture. That was pre-butterfly logo. That picture is several months old.
The butterfly logo is one of the greatest things about that company, especially after Bad Man #2 decided to kill the beautiful bird logo. What an absolute waste that was.
What percentage of those are bots?
There’s not that many bots yet and people are big into blocking (and you can subscribe to block lists so it’s automatic). I’m sure as it grows, bot traffic will too — it’s seemingly inevitable — but 20 million users isn’t really that much compared to legacy platforms. I think is mostly news because lots of people are fleeing X due to the election.
Seems likely to be very low so far.
Although it's getting enough attention lately that this may change.
I just "secured" my handle there. It's unlikely I'll become a frequent user/poster, but who knows...
No need to secure a handle, you can use a domain name you own as your handle.

Congrats to Bluesky.
