Blue sky is a new social media platform that was created by Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. It allows users to post 300 character posts and still images, but not videos or gifts. There's no change password function on the site so you have to pretend you forgot it. The app feels like an early version of Twitter with different communities for different types of content.
Paris Marx is joined by Matt Binder to discuss Elon Musk’s first six months at Twitter and how his obsession with blue checks has decimated the company’s finances.
