People often say that there's plenty of room for multiple Twitter clones.

There isn't. There's really only room for one, and Bluesky looks like it's going to be the one.

There is, however, plenty of room for all sorts of other social media platforms that aren't Twitter clones.

Bit disappointed to see Gervais on there, the man who has made millions on "being cancelled" over the last decade.

They put serious stuff on BBC's Newsnight. Serious stuff that impacts society.

Last night they did Bluesky.

Mike Tyson can still win if Mike Pence has the courage.

@thestorygraph.com I am trying your app out and I have a feature request. Please allow us to add custom page counts to each book. I like to track my progress and the page counts almost never match and I would like to use raw numbers as opposed to percentages.

I've read the death series of discworld and plan to read Going Postal soon. Heard a bit about Malazan so will look into that and Wheel of Time. Thank you for the recommendations.

Who knew?

I'm currently reading, and thoroughly enjoying the Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. I have read Mistborn and have started The Gentlemen Bastards by Scott Lynch, can anyone else recommend some good fantasy series? #reading #mostborm #stormlightarchive
