NMA & Blue Sky account
« on: January 21, 2026, 10:07:33 AM »
New Model Army at Blue Sky Social:

https://bsky.app/profile/newmodelarmy.bsky.social

... And I just spotted a couple of days ago some posts including New Model Army hashtags on some posts concerning musical challenges and great gigs people have seen last year.

For those wondering what the Blue Sky actually is it's a public social media platform reminding old Twitter but with longer post capability and without any interface with Elmo nor Meta.

I like this place here because it's a forum, from the old meaning of a public place. I feel it's different than social media and it's been here for quite a while. Almost since the beginning of the internet thing. So the band gave us a public place for people all over the world to connect. Which then was a new thing, technology evolving and i feel theres nothing more to add or have or want. And i don't want to download another app, another silicon valley thing to give my data to and here you can do all things that they claim to have better. So for me is an interesting invitation, but no thanks.
ever tried. ever failed. no matter.
try again. fail again. fail better.

I agree, I stay away from everything except YouTube. Forums are great especially if they support PM.
