Until it gets mass adoption, then the enshitification will begin. Bluesky is still funded by a corporation.
Also the article doesnt have any critical question how BlueSky is a “mediated” network instead of decentralised …
Not merely funded, owned by a for-profit.
It exists for profit. That is its goal and purpose.
I hate how bluesky is seen as a revolution while fediverse devs have been doing shit ton of work for years

Not quite. It’s just easier to jump in to mechanics you already know, rather than try to reconceptualise the structure and learn to navigate new pitfalls: oh I need to select a server? Which one is the right one? Oh I need a client, which one? Oh I can’t quote retweet? How do I find interesting people to follow? Is this the right handle in the right server or am I following a bot?
And better work at that
I hate how bluesky is seen as a revolution…
I’m pretty sure that’s just the establishment liberal media. A real revolution would mean upending their own way of life.
They paid marketing money.
Another shit private company trying to take over the world. Fuck off
People leave one shit hole corporate dystopia for another and think things are going to change.
Isn’t that the usual state of affairs for westerners?
Nah dude if you stay an early adopter you can hop onto whatever platform is a fuckin desert before they enshittify it the minute it starts getting a community

It was a matter of time until BS (I prefer to use this abbreviation) reveals its true face, tragically after it permits the connection with instances in the Fediverse. It must be blocked immediately from Mastodon and others.
To those saying it isn’t decentralized. Most people don’t care. Bluesky is an easy to use Twitter alternative. People use it over others because of it’s ease of use and popularity. The average user doesn’t care about the how.
CopeSky would be a better name. It will have to close up shop once investors realize it’s not Twitter 2.0.
It’s sad that Bluesky was chosen over Mastodon as the standard Twitter alternative when Mastodon is actually decentralized
Utterly fuck shitter alt bluesky. Fuck them sideways and down and dead. Fuck them dead.
This is a psychotic reaction to a new social media site that is better than almost all the existing ones.
So?
It’s a fork of pre-Musk Twitter, so what do you expect?
What about MeWe? Also decentralized
