Bluesky Social for Android

Wait list is way WAY too long. Now I het why everyone is mass deleting it and vowing never to join. Hope they change their minds when it FINALLY goes live for everyone. I’ve been waiting on an invite for MONTHS. I’ll give it another week before giving up as well. Life is too short. Disappointed!

I’ve been waiting for months, and now I just don’t care. Deleted the app. Even if I get a code, no thanks. The point of social media is to interact and public discussion. If you aren’t public, how can you be successful?

You gotta know somebody to get an invite. The elites are swooping in. I’ve given up on ever joining. Sayonara BlueSky. You missed your chance.

The invite system that folks hate is pretty useful for ensuring the entire app doesn't break due to heavy load. It's a work in progress and IMO is way better than Threads already.

I don’t think having a waitlist which sends out invite codes at a glacial pace is a very good idea. Not only does it delay growth of the site, but many will lose interest and maybe even forget about the site by the time they finally receive their invite a year later. If you don’t have the resources to account for a social media, which is obviously going to have lots of people joining it, maybe just don’t host one? Threads by Instagram started right out the gate with no invite system. Side note: the exclusivity factor of the site that the invite system provides does not entice people to join, it makes them not even want to bother.
