@michaelcoyote @JesseSkinner I think keeping Mastodon as a main account and also building a community on BS that could be ported here if the enshitification of BS hits, might not be an awful idea. it might also be a way to educate people about the fediverse. #Mastodon #BlueSky

@Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote @JesseSkinner Good strategy. I see Mastodon as Quality, BS will like X be about Quantity. Mastodon is my first port of call.

@Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote @JesseSkinner And really, you can follow blue sky users on here anyway, and bridge your account over there anyway, so I am choosing to bridge my account, and follow accounts that have bridged, so when they enshittify I won’t be starting over from scratch

@WeirdWriter @Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote yeah same here. It really is a shame that Bluesky wasn't built on the Fediverse. Why can't we all just get along [on a unified, decentralised and open standards-based platform]??

@JesseSkinner @Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote I don’t know why they decided to make their own protocol, but if anybody asks me, I’ll just tell them. The Fediverse is the last, and I really do mean last, social media network I will ever use. The platform might change. I might try Friendica. I maybe will open another Bookwyrm account. I might move over to go to Social permanently. I might try Write Freely again but if the platform isn’t using activity pub or an RSS feed, I just will not try it. I will never make a native account on blue sky. My account can be bridged over there and when they do shut down third-party access, the audience I’ve cultivated over here isn’t lost

^– is part of why. ATproto is designed so you can try all sorts of different front ends with your data. Your data stays in the one place, easily self hosted, and you can store and use data from multiple different services in the one place.

It’s a two year old protocol that’s been designed so that it can go on even if the company fails in five years. There are already multiple plans for the rest of the stack to be implemented outside of the company that is Bluesky. Once they’re up they’ll be able to interoperate far better than APub instances currently do with each other.

@JesseSkinner I hate to be that person but it’s because unhappy people think money & power will make them happy and…
A. Because Blue Sky wasn’t built for us, it was built to use us. 🤣

B. Because Blue Sky wasn’t built for us, it was built to use us. 😿
And last but not least
C. Because Blue Sky wasn’t built for us, it was built to use us.

@JesseSkinner @WeirdWriter @Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote I know. And I think you do too. It’s about the money. You don’t build anything on an open protocol if you don’t plan to eventually enshittify your service and milk it financially into oblivion. Bluesky is heading into the same direction as Twitter, etc., just give it enough time.

Have a look at the BlueSky investor list and you’ll get your answer.

@kateiacy We need to build the most robust communities. Speaking of, I’d love to boost some of your COVID posts, so hit me up when you’re no longer an anonymous pachyderm. 😉 RFK is gonna damage a lot of lives & the more we raise our voices together the safer we’ll all be. 😊 @WeirdWriter @michaelcoyote @JesseSkinner #Covid #LongCovid

@Pineywoozle @michaelcoyote @JesseSkinner And don't forget to educate people on both platforms about Bridgy Fed.
