  "textContent": "Bluesky's business corner is scattered across 2,000+ starter packs. Most of them are low-effort or abandoned. I went through the Business category and pulled out the ones worth joining.\n\n Active finance on Bluesky ( 479761 , @sorentsvendsen.bsky.social, 154+ members) is a solid general finance pack. Good mix of markets people, fintech folks, and econ commentators.\n\n Unions of Bluesky ( 442909 , @literallyrosebud.bsky.social, 385+ members) is the largest on this list. Labor organizers, union reps, and pro-worker journalists. If you care about labor issues, this is where they ended up after Twitter.\n\n R & economics ( 409401 , @econmaett.github.io, 174+ members) is more academic—economists who also happen to use R for data work. Niche but high quality.\n\n Business and biodiversity ( 182890 , @helenkopnina.bsky.social, 150+ members) covers the intersection of corporate activity and ecological impact. Researchers, policy people, sustainability consultants.\n\n International Political Economy ( 108320 , @cfbalcazar.bsky.social, 150+ members) leans toward trade policy, development economics, and global governance. Academic but accessible.\n\n SustMeme Business & Finance Pt1 ( 86678 , @sustmeme.com, 150+ members) focuses on sustainable business and ESG-adjacent finance. The \"Pt1\" means there are follow-up packs if you want more.\n\nI keep an updated directory of all Bluesky starter packs at /starter-packs . If you're not sure how starter packs work or how to find specific ones, I wrote a guide on how to find Bluesky starter packs .",
