I think the thing that used to make GitHub so compelling is that it was a product driven by engineers for other engineers

@pfrazee.com I have the conference guestbook thing ongoing and I'm trying to bring it to Bsky but all the threads are only appearing in the "Replies" tab.
Only posts without a reply appear in "Posts"
Is this expected behaviour or am I missing something?

I think that I might have a neat idea for something at a #Ruby / #Rails #conference that people might talk about.
To do that I'd need someone to #sponsor this.
So please share this so that folks who might want have visibility at a Ruby/Rails #conf see this.
