What problem are we trying to solve for our communities with this experiment? How might it help us better serve them?

Twitter has recently confirmed that they actively suppress the reach of news content linked on the platform, and millions of users have migrated to Bluesky in the past couple months. The OPB twitter account has also not posted anything in over a year.

I believe we could better reach news-interested audiences by removing the Twitter share button and replacing it with one for Bluesky.
