Bluesky has just started officially hosting and verifying dozens of accounts from Trump's regime including the Whitehouse, Homeland Security / ICE, the Department of War etc (https://cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog/115393404732174116).

It “only” took me a few years to find out that I don’t need to have a PeerTube or Lemmy account to interact with them; I just need to copy/paste the link in Mastodon search and then follow or reply.

It isn't clear to me whether an LLM is replacing Twitter's current recommendation-engine (i.e., what some misleadingly call "an algorithm" or "the algorithm") with an LLM.
Or, if the LLM is more of a front-end to a non-LLM based recommendation-engine.
