What's your take on Bluesky? (feddit.it)

I recently finished the episode of The Verge's podcast #Decoder with the interview to Bluesky's CEO and it seems a quite interesting project. At the beginning I wasn't looking really into it because of their choice of using a new protocol instead of the existing ActivityPub, but after listening to her and the reasons behind this choice maybe I'll give them a chance.

What do you think? Do you use it alongside with the fediverse?

I know next to nothing about it, but isn't it created and owned by the dude who created twitter? I don't trust it one bit. There must be some trap somewhere.
Only one entity develops bluesky. AP has many implementations and room to grow. My expectation is that there's a plan to make a change to the protocol once they have enough marketshare that will make it much less open.

jack dorsey was initially just on the board of directors, but he didn't create or own it.
