🧵3/7:... who chose #Bluesky because "it is a #community who care about others with a lot of #cooperative energy". When I suggested Bluesky might not quite be that, he answered he was "not concerned with ownership structures" and didn't "see validating a government department as facilitating #fascism."
And that's when it hit me: must I really contend with that level of reflection?
Staying bridged to Bluesky is often seen as an effort to step out of the #echochamber & reaching across the aisle.

🧵2/7: I adopted @bsky.brid.gy early on, when I was still recovering from having left #Twitter & was concerned about critical mass & engagement.
Now? There's only 2 #bluesky accounts I'd miss & stand to lose a handful of followers. Nothing that justifies staying. The nail in the coffin was a recent interaction with a Bluesky user who identified as " a bleeding-heart #liberal and compulsive speculator rambling about saving the world" ...

🧵1/7: A #longthread on #bluesky /#bridge / #echochambers.
Following @Gargron's decision to opt out of the Bluesky bridge, most likely driven by the platform's official verification of the #ICE account, and one last pointless interaction with a Bluesky account holder,
I decided to follow suit & severe my own Bluesky ties. I realised the idea of echo chambers was probably a myth invented by the giant #socialmedia platforms to prevent users from fleeing. Let me explain.

In Deutschland bahnt sich mit der Initiative #Eurosky eine neue europäische Social-Media-Infrastruktur an, basierend auf dem #Bluesky-Protokoll. Ziel ist es, eine unabhängige Umgebung für soziale Medien aufzubauen, die auf europäischen Servern läuft und nicht von ausländischen Regierungen beeinflusst werden kann. https://www.eurosky.social/

people keep talking about mastodon needing mainstream adoption, but, like.
does mastodon *actually* need mainstream adoption?
most of us are here because we like what mastodon is right now - a comfortable, more relaxed alternative to the never ending shitflinging and ragebaiting that takes place on every other major platform.

Particularly funny watching the individuals STILL at #bluesky , talking about #xitter , as if there were much difference.
A #DTBO is a DTBO, it's just Dorsey/Musk/Zuck with another douchy face and headgear.
