@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 I hate to be that person but it’s because unhappy people think money & power will make them happy and… B. 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. |
@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
