undefined | Better HN

It's not. Bluesky is still quite primitive. I wouldn't even call it a "beta", more like an alpha.

They gave invite codes to some "influencers", and it got a lot of hype and media attention, but after the hype died down somewhat, it's become basically a nothing burger. I've stopped giving out the invite codes that I'm accumulating, because my feed is pretty boring and dead. Bluesky is far more "promise" than reality.

Meta has 1000x the engineering resources of Bluesky.

You should post any codes you have here, I imagine the HN userbase is more likely than most to be interested in trying a project like that out (or maybe it's just me :))

I already have plenty of people interested in the codes. But when new people arrive and look around, they tend to lose interest just like I did.

So instead of sending out your invite codes to diversify the user base to generate more content, you will instead not distribute the codes?
