I'm so glad I got off #Bluesky. Basically, the changes they rolled out about two days ago increase virality. They are essentially setting up a massive cognitohazard zone to push propaganda. They are not just using a typical ML categorization algorithm and telemetry. They are importing cliques via the Starter Pack as subgraphs. The next election is going to be fucking bad.

"It would start losing money very quickly."
FYI that's exactly what #bluesky is doing. They are spending VC money and have no business model. As they both stand, #mastodon is sustainable. BS is not. But they have the hype machine that coming out of Twitter and hiding/avoiding the decentralization and the VC money enables. Sometimes the "smart people" either are not, live in a bubble or are lying. But sure we're the assholes for correcting the record.

This reminds me of a number of years back when I had presence on about a half-dozen mini-blogging sites. There were plugins to make cross-posting easy, but it meant disjoint conversations. The problem solved itself when Google killed Plus and (almost) everything succumbed to #Twitter and #FaceBook.
That Twitter and FaceBook #enshittened themselves — on a number of bases — has led to a return to disjoint conversation-spaces. #Fedi was supposed to make it so that that didn't have to be, but #BlueSky decided to do their own thing and #Meta's #Threads is basically radioactive to many of the Fedi admins.
Maybe one day things will reach that "dispersed but linked" nirvana, but that day isn't today.

Hi #GTFOmyState ! I've started trying to cut down the word count of my posts and boost it on BlueSky as well! I'm not a fan of the platform personally so I've only made a crowdfunding page on it as there's more reach to be found on it.
Do check me out there if you use Bluesky and boost those fundraisers (as many as I'll be capable of posting without losing the main meaning of the plea) over on bluesky as well!
Here's my Bluesky account:

Ich bin da nicht so bewandert, aber gibt es nicht eine Möglichkeit, #BlueSky und #Mastodon technisch zu kombinieren?
Wer kann mir da Input dazu geben - das würde ich denen gerne rückmelden. Danke! (2/2)
