Go to your favorite content creators and ask them to create a profile on Bluesky. If you don't ask them, how are they supposed to know?

I'm still on the fence about that...I think it'd make more sense for many to drop social media and opt for their own site with RSS feeds. A lot of social media for some is little more than a noisier RSS reader. Sometimes even literally with those with auto-playing videos. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Y'all are delulu/out of touch with normal people if you think they're gonna set up an RSS feed

[โ€“] ElectroVagrant 3 points 1 month ago

Nah, I get that normal people wouldn't, but I can dream. It's so much better than making Yet Another Account. Plus I know in set up we're talkin' people pulling the feed into a reader, but also for content creators making sites, loads of sitebuilding software already has RSS baked in, so it's not even that big an ask from them.

If there's another more convenient no-sign-up method of keeping up with sites and stuff online, I'd love to know, 'cause I know many aren't about to use RSS.
