Hi guys, I've got a Bluesky code to give away, and I figured some of you guys would like it. Just a few requirements:

  • You must have been a member of pawb.social for at least two weeks.
  • You must have commented or posted on something in pawb.social in the past two weeks. Doesn't matter if you're doing so after this post either, though hopefully you'll keep being active.
  • To be entered, you need to reply to this post (which will not count toward the past two weeks' activity requirement).

I'll be randomly picking someone after 48 hours, and I'll likely delete this post after another 24. Best of luck!

Edit: It's been 48 hours, and of the 3 people who commented, only one actually didn't have Bluesky already, so DraconicNeo has been sent the code. I have to say the response has been surprising. I offered a free giveaway, and got the post downvoted to hell and nothing but negativity for it. I absolutely won't be repeating this again. Screw deletion, I'd just as soon leave this up so the next person doesn't try to make my mistake.

Wow people are assholes, Bluesky is a nice place to be right now. It's still corporate social media so odds are it'll turn bad in the coming years, but right now it's a nice place with lots of furries.

Though tbh i think most people who wanted an invite code already have them, even i got a code that's how you know they're reaching the bottom of the barrel

Wow people are assholes

I wouldn't jump to that immediately. Yeah, the response sucks, but could just be a bunch of people having a bad day. But yeah, it seems like a lot of people on the waitlist got let in right after Meta announced Threads was opening federation. The furry stuff seems to be pretty active though, especially the feeds provided by FurryList.
