Fleeing from Twitter to Bluesky remains one of the dumbest, most myopic decisions that people have made in recent memory. “Oh, I’m sure a Dorsey-run and designed service won’t turn out exactly like the last one did!”
Bluesky is pretty great so far, in may i will complete 1 year and I like a lot, made many friends.
Its perfect? Of course not…
It’s an online space. You haven’t made any “friends” at all. Holy shit.
Why this over Mastodon?
When corporations inevitably arrive to the platform, we can use it to shame them into offering a decent service after they ignore our calls and emails.
Haven’t been following Blue sky stuff at all. Any reason to use this over mastodon?
Celebrities, politicians and businesses will be more likely to show up on the platform, if that’s your jam.
Ah gotcha. I’m kind of enjoying just hanging with regular people being regular on mastodon. Probably check out bluesky at some point.
Thanks for the info!
As an American you’re supposed to consider yourself a temporarily inconvenienced superstar millionaire, so maybe you should get over to there to hob nob with the rich foke.
The literal elephant in the room is Mastodon, the open source, decentralized social network that’s been around since 2016, years before Bluesky existed. While the platforms share similar goals, they use different protocols, making it difficult for the platforms to work together.
Quick, someone link the xkcd
