Stupid question that I presume everyone else here knows the answer to, but: is there a good/easy way to cross-post to Mastodon and Bluesky? As in, doesn't require a degree in computer science or more than 3 brain cells

Feel like Mastodon is the salad that you know is better for you, while Bluesky is the triple-decker double bacon cheeseburger that's enjoyable in the moment but that you'll 100% regret later

@Ciaraioch I’m using an app called Openvibe for iOS. Works fine so far.

@Ciaraioch sure look, the practically antiviral design of Mastodon is fuckin hard to do professional stuff on - apart from professional Linux stuff probably, but otherwise

Even as someone expecting go full James Connolly meme over it some day, anyone who thinks they can knock a few years trade out of it in the meantime should fill their boots.

@davey_cakes I think that's what it basically boils down to with most social media now when you use them for creative work etc, very aware they've a lifespan and likely to get Bad sooner or later, but you just have to make do with what you're given. Exhausting, though. It is nice to have this one, regardless.

@Ciaraioch I think of it more as Bluesky being like Mickey Mouse - lots of money, the people behind it are *really* not the kind of people you'd want to be alone in a room with, and the whole package is very bland and corporate.

And Mastodon is more like Zooble.

@Ciaraioch Openvibe works with Android too and I'm using it right now.

@Ciaraioch why does it give me vibes of that Simpson's episode where Mr Burns decided to setup a 100% sustainable recycling business? I hope I'm wrong, but… tech bros…
