Bluesky is truth social for the other side of the spectrum. Quite happy both sides are leaving mastodon alone.

The “complicated” Fediverse signup process is actually the perfect filter. If someone isn’t willing to learn such a trivial process to gain access to an open decentralized discussion platform, then they really only have themselves to blame when they keep ending up in enshittified algorithmically-manipulated echo chambers.

I like how people just chose to believe the “trust me bro” attitude from bluesky’s leadership on web3.0 monetization when their investors quite literally have a track record of doing so. We’ve collectively learned nothing for the past 3 decades.

Honestly never thought I’d live long enough to see Idiocracy become a documentary.

What disgruntled them this time that didn’t disgruntle them in the previous 2 years? It went to shit as soon as Elon bought it. Were they just ignoring the red flags for 2 years straight?

When he started pushing his own tweets and Republican influencers to the top of my feed I quit the same day

Didn’t @Jack quit Twitter right after Elon bought it?

He did quit (this is an old meme), but things haven’t gotten better.

JWZ » “I prefer to meet people where they are” says reasonable-sounding white dude holding court at a table in the back of a Nazi Bar.

It’s Bluesky. The Nazi Bar is Bluesky.

Now that Dorsey has bailed as a board member and principal funder, Bluesky’s DNA is basically [TESCREAL / Effective Altruist] people. It gets worse. Blockchain Capital LLC was co-founded by Steve Bannon pal Brock Pierce, a major crypto advocate, perennial presidential candidate, and close friend of Eric Adams. Pierce has dozens of other shady MAGA/Russia ties as well.”
