@atomicpoet BlueSky is a profit-driven business like Twitter and Meta?

@manlycoffee @atomicpoet Yup. I don't think that was ever in question. It was always intended to be "monetized". BlueSky and Nostr are particularly popular with the crypto crowd who are into everything being monetized.

It's actually incorporated as a Public Benefit LLC.

They're somewhere between for-profit and non-profit in that they are allowed to make money and must pay taxes but the board is bound by terms in the covenant/mission at time of incorporation instead of having a fiduciary duty to maximize shareholder value.

Mostly it protects CEOs from getting sued by shareholders for suboptimal decisions.
