I don't know how useful it is to tell people how "truly decentralized" Bluesky is, or that it's funded by the likes of Blockchain Capital, but-!
I do think it's worth promoting efforts like https://www.blackskyweb.xyz and https://northskysocial.com that work towards wrestling control of our online lives away from corporations back to us.

@danabra.mov The issue is much deeper than migration. I mean, #mastodon is distributed over 8k servers. If #bluesky would be decentralized in the same way and also distributed over 8k independent entities, wouldn't this mean that every single post would have to be moderated 8k times?

@danabra.mov I'm not sure if #atproto has solved that either, neither in practice nor in theory. In practice today #atmosphere is basically centralized in #bluesky, so if you are blocked on #bluesky, also migration would keep you invisible for basically everyone else. But also in theory for a "credible exit" and "giving new life to old data", which new service would accept you and retroactive moderate all your "old data" again? How would this work?

One more picture of the channel Höytiäinen from last Sunday walk. Weather was so beautiful.

I really wish #Bluesky had a "hide reposts" like #Mastodon does. There are a few folks who I really like & appreciate their original content, but goodness, they can flood a feed with low-effort reposts. Woof.
Bummer.

Ohioans on Bluesky are now getting the 'Are you *really* old enough to be here?' treatment just to scroll. Proving your age to post a thought? Seems like a great way to make social media feel less... social. What's your take on mandatory age verification for platforms? #Bluesky #AgeVerification #TechPolicy #SocialMedia #UserExperience

In my sisters sci comm lecture today, a slide displayed three alternatives to X.

We need to be better at supporting these young academics who are being pointed this way.
