@mjf_pro @oliphant that's fine, but what I'm reacting to is the claim that it is harder to convince people to jump into the frying pan nowadays. I'm not convinced that's the case, given how many people have migrated to BlueSky and continue to do so (to the point of being willing to pay money for invites).

@walruslifestyle @oliphant Correct. The question isn’t that they’re moving, it’s *where* they’re deciding to move to. My friend @binarytango has a keen observation on that point, that speaks to mass media-fed problems beyond tech as well: mstdn.binarytango.com/@binaryt

@mjf_pro @oliphant @binarytango the tech "press" largely regurgitates company press releases or sponsored hagiographies. but I'm not sure blame can be laid at their feet. why people choose billionaire-run social media over alternatives isn't just a matter of industry media narratives.
