Big news for our community: Port Orchard Parrots Plus and the Port Orchard Parrot Rescue & Sanctuary are now both available to follow on BlueSky!
For those unfamiliar, BlueSky is a new kind of social platform—open-source, decentralized, and community-driven. It’s built with a focus on privacy, transparency, and user control. Unlike some of the older platforms, BlueSky doesn’t rely on intrusive data collection or algorithmic manipulation to decide what you see. Instead, it’s a refreshing, clutter-free space where meaningful conversations can thrive without the noise.
As frustration grows with platforms like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter)—where ads are relentless, algorithms control visibility, and community guidelines are inconsistently enforced—more people and organizations are choosing to migrate. BlueSky is becoming a haven for those who value authenticity, connection, and free expression. It’s especially appealing to small businesses and nonprofit groups like ours that want to stay close to their community without being buried under a pile of paid promotions or drowned out by bots and spam.
By joining BlueSky, we hope to create a more direct line between us and the people who care about what we do—from sharing tips on parrot care and store updates, to rescue stories and adoption events. It’s a space where your voice is more likely to be heard, and where we can engage without distraction.
We’d love to see you there:
