【Mr & Mrs Jones (2010)】

Right now,Mr & Mrs Jones (2010) Twitter kind of feels like the end of Titanicwhere there aren't enough lifeboats for everyone to escape.

The proverbial lifeboat in this case is Bluesky Social, a new Twitter-like app with partial funding from former Twitter head Jack Dorsey. Bluesky is getting rave reviews from people who are using it, even though it's got kind of weird data collection policies. The only problem is that actually using Bluesky isn't as easy as you might think.

If you want to get in, you'll need a code. Here's how that works.

The otherway to get in is to simply know someone who's already using Bluesky. Existing users get one code per week to share with anyone they want. It's not much (and any existing Bluesky user almost certainly has way too many friends asking for a code already), but it's another way to get your foot in the door.

However, the most likely outcome here is that you'll simply have to wait like the rest of us. Hopefully Twitter still works by the time your invite shows up.
