Wait, you mean #Bluesky, the great social media experiment funded by the rich is imploding?
I hear folks are thinking about heading back here from #Bluesky then off to #TwiX then re-join #AOL on dial-up. Life moves pretty frickin' fast on the Interwebbed Protocols, I suppose.
For some #Bluesky is essential, they won't go back to #Twitter, and can't handle #Fedi for reasons, that may be personal or commercial reasons.
Similarly, I'll never stop using WA and FB Marketplace, since those tools are essential to my living. Telegram is the 2nd most popular choice.
No fedi/foss tool/platform/protocol will replace that stack down here anytime soon.
Network effects are too powerful.
My personal stance on #Bluesky is very simple, I don't interact a lot there, most of my content are due to crosspostings.
Despite not talking to people there, somehow I got +500 followers in a very short time.
I initially went there to recreate my local hub from Twitter, instead I got almost the same type of people I follow here already, but a bit more peacocking and annoying.
Twitter remains my local 9/11 news alert system. Always something happens and msm is the last to know.
Every time I point out that #bluesky is not actually #federated in the way any rational person defines the word, I get lectured by techbros who "Well achctually" me about how #ATProto and bluesky are separate things and it's about the protocol.
In reality no, it's not federated in any meaningful way, or at least not any way that mitigates the problems of traditional social media and web network effects. It's more of the same, but more jargon!

"Por que os usuários do Bluesky, um protocolo supostamente aberto, simplesmente não mudam para um servidor diferente quando o CEO do servidor deles age de forma inadequada?"

People surprised that the Bluesky CEO seems to be an arsehole, like we're not all here from Twitter..

Everyone in the fediverse whenever there’s #bluesky drama

Jay Graber acting like the head mod of a shitty Fediverse server that's about to get Fediblocked by everyone for obvious bigotry.
I hear the 'phobes are using 'Waffles' as a slur against trans people now, if you needed an update.
Fuck Silicon Valley and fuck Transphobia.

Over there on #Bluesky

Meine Einschätzung zu dem "Waffles"-Blödeleien und dem "Dann geht doch in Poster-Streik, höhö" von Jay Graber von #Bluesky ist, dass das kein nervlicher Zusammenbruch ist, sondern einfach der übliche überhebliche Valley-Bros-Humor. Sie findet sich witzig. Mich erinnert das strukturell frappierend an ausgerechnet Elon Musk.
