Hello everyone,

As some of you already know, we have recently stopped publishing content on X (formerly Twitter) due to changes in its policies and associated costs.But this does not mean that we are going to stop sharing information and news about diabetes on social networks.

On the contrary.

We are happy to announce thatDiabetes Forum now has an official account on Bluesky:

We would love for you to follow us to help us build an active community around diabetes there too.

What is Bluesky?

Bluesky is a social network very similar to Twitter/X in its operation.Allows you to publish short messages, share links, images and participate in open conversations with other people.

The difference is that Bluesky was born with a more open and decentralized philosophy.Its goal is for users to have more control over their experience and for the platform to not depend exclusively on the decisions of a single company.

For those of you who used Twitter a few years ago, the Bluesky experience will be very familiar: simpler conversations, less noise and greater ease in discovering content of interest.

Why do we think it can be a good alternative?

Although each person will have their opinion, there are several aspects that we find interesting:

✅ Less presence of advertising.

✅ Greater visibility of published content.

✅ Very active growing community.

✅ Less dependence on algorithms designed to maximize controversy or confrontation.

✅ More control for users over what content they want to see.

✅ An experience more similar to the Twitter of its best years.

In addition, for independent projects and communities such as Diabetes Forum, Bluesky is currently a much more accessible platform to share content and reach people interested in diabetes.


Help us grow!

If you already have a Bluesky account, we invite you to follow us:

👉diabetesforo.bsky.social

And if you don't know the platform yet, maybe this is a good time to try it.

The more community members we get involved, the easier it will be for diabetes information to reach those who need it.

See you in the forum... and now also on Bluesky!💙
