Instead of leaving Xitter, they left Mastodon. Proton's trend is not inspiring confidence and this feels like another step backwards.

Bluesky is not much better than X despite it claiming to
It's... better in the sense that you don't have right wing weirdos all over the place. But technically? Organizationally? Feels like we're on track to replay the same exact shit over again. It feels like people just aren't learning the lessons they should from the Twitter takeover.
Bluesky can be taken over by a billionaire. The fediverse cannot. Bluesky is just another Musk waiting to happen.

Why do you keep adding that license to all your posts? You're like those boomers on Facebook that fell for that "Facebook doesn't own my photos cause I say so" meme.
No AI is gonna pay attention to whatever this is.
Thank you for the original comment. Never read that opinion before. It must be difficult living with your intellect among us dumb mortals.

Oh, I think I get along just fine. 😂
Then it's not much better :D
Nostr guys (even though that you'll also find right-wing werdos) are building great things. Open source client side algorithmes that you can choose, value4value and more. As of today it's still clunky and people are not used to not having account and managing cryptographic keys so too early, the fediverse is a nice middleground in my opinion.
Bluesky is WAY better than Twitter. It's still vulnerable to the same issues Twitter is, but someplace with no nazis is always going to be better than someplace with nazis.
