Initial temperature check for #Socialcoop members:

- Love it, I would use it (16%, 2 votes)
- Fine, I guess (58%, 7 votes)
- I have reservations (reply below) (8%, 1 vote)
- Definitely not (16%, 2 votes)
My own perspective is that I think this could be a low-hanging way for Social.coop to become cross-platform and to explore what it means to have a cooperative presence on ATProto/Bluesky. It would also advertise our collective existence there.
Personally, not sure I'd use it, as I already use my personal domain (@ntnsndr.in) on Bluesky.
