    I’m not the first person to say this, but why not Mastodon? Why give control to another billionaire?

      because people are so domesticated, they’d feel weird if there’s nobody exploiting their data

      It’s not even another billionaire, it’s Jack Dorsey, the twitter guy. I do not understand why anyone who dislike twitter cares about bluesky at all.

        The entertainment industry (which includes most journalists in my opinion) loves twitter’s centralized control. They don’t hate twitter, they just hate the new owner.

      Jack Dorsey is no longer involved with Blue Sky, he got bullied off the site https://www.theguardian.com/technology/article/2024/may/07/jack-dorsey-quits-bluesky-board-urges-users-stay-elon-musk-x-twitter

        I had no idea about this. Very funny but also infuriating. They all know exactly what they’re doing with this mealy-mouthed shit. “do not trust corpos” says the corpo suit. Incredible

      Being centralized was kinda the whole point of Twitter. The problem people have is much less to do with the basics of how Twitter works and solely with melon-musk and the changes he’s made

      The only thing that surprises me is that Twitter (Sorry, X the everything app) has held on this long. At least set something up to auto post your posts on both while you transition over, but moving to BlueSky should be everyone’s obvious goal with the cesspit Twitter is now.
