Has anyone gotten an invite to BlueSky? (Open to all now, invites no longer required)

These things seem to be rarer than Faberge eggs. Anyone gotten in yet?

(BlueSky is a Twitter/X alternative. I don’t really know what it offers that’s better than the alternative, but it’s not associated with Musk, so that’s gotta be an improvement.)

Let’s leave the inevitable “I never saw a use for Twitter myself” babblings out of this thread, please.

They seem to be for sale for from $9 to $29 or so at the Reddit blueskyinvites sub-reddit.

This reminds me of when you needed an invite for gmail. We had a thread here for people with extras to invite other dopers.

I remember that though I don’t remember who I got my invitation from.

I’ve got a few. Given most of them away.

Yup - I got my gmail from that thread.

If you get any extras, I’d love one.

I have 5 invite codes. I’ll happily give them out to the first 5 people who ask for one.

I have 5 as well. PM me if you want one but you’re not missing much IMHO.

Having trouble sending you a PM.

I’m in thanks to @echoreply.

The first suggested topic for me was mushrooms. Fair enough.

I’ve been trying to track one down so my wife could finally have the incentive to ditch twitter, but I never learned how to PM people😔

Anyone else need one? I still have a few.

Invites are no longer needed; anyone can join.
