checked #bluesky and the mood is almost the same as here, half of the people have no other topic than their sexuality and comments about different others.... 🤷

Pardon the expression, but #Bluesky was all atwitter over @mmasnick’s
ingenious new game designed to give people a lived experience at moderating content and behavior. He could win the peace prize for this!

I appreciate that this is going to upset some people, and I thought I was too shy to say it, but I prefer #BlueSky over #Mastodon:

Here's why:

I've been thinking about this #bluesky post, and this seems backwards to me. In my view, protocols should be extracted from functioning apps, not created in a vacuum. The core feedback loop for development should involve actual users and actual use. Without that, it's just building sky castles in hopes that all your guesses turn out right.

PS this is what I mean about the MSM and tech press jumping on the Bluesky hype bubble. It's complete with really shitty clickbait headlines like "Bluesky's best shot at success is to embrace shitposting" or "'BlueSky' wants to market itself as a 'Musk-free' space, says CEO". I can almost see the alien bat baby on the cover of Weekly World News supermarket tabloids when reading these search results LOL. Honestly this feels like an episode of the HBO show Silicon Valley almost at this point. #bluesky #msm #technews

lol, Twitter Jack doesn't want you screenshotting his new targeted advertising fest, #Bluesky 🤡

Was just asked by a friend if I wanted a #BlueSky invite.

My reply?

“Thanks but no thanks.”

Why?

Because I don’t need to see the app. I know the people behind it and what they stand for. The app can only ever be a manifestation of (or an initial misdirection from) that.

Expecting the wolf that took a bite out of you last time to this time act in your interests is how you end up as its dinner.

Beware of billionaires peddling “decentralisation”.

Anyone seeking a decentralised world would never allow themselves to do the things it takes to become (or remain) a billionaire. Billionaires and trillion-dollar corporations are the epitome of centralisation.

Decentralisation begins at decentring yourself.
