Techies have been trying to make a “healthier” social media platform for decades .

Founder Kunal Lunawat says Wildr is relaunching as a text-only platform with images and video.

The app promises a return to the basics” by leveraging a text only format that would, as I deciphered it, merge the best parts of Reddit , Medium and early Twitter .

Over the past week , as calls of an X exodus intensified from Musk’s critics, 1 million new users signed up for Bluesky , the company confirmed to WIRED.

Bluesky has better moderation practices in place, and thus, is a safer alternative for users.

It remains to be seen whether Bluesky can uphold those protections as it grows.
