Last week my little-used Threads and Bluesky accounts gained a trove of new followers for Totally Mysterious Reasons. So if you're looking to follow me on either platform:
On Threads, I'm "wjamesau"
On Bluesky, I'm "SLHamlet"
Advice wanted: Is there a good service for quickly cross-posting to and from these platforms, or also to/from Twitter/X?
As for Twitter/X itself, I'll keep posting there for the foreseeable future, if only to share new posts and chat with followers. Not to pull rank, but I've been on Twitter since 2007, three years longer than the current owner. I'm also very well aware of what's been happening to the social network since its acquisition, but in my experience, the virtual world/metaverse/Second Life ecosystem there is largely free from the service's worst levels of toxicity. What's more, I'd estimate 30% of them are not even based in the United States.
None of this is ideal, but then again, continuing to keep New World Notes operating basically means continuing to run every social media channel it's associated with. Speaking of which, also please consider following/subscribing to my Patreon!
