@J12t It's obvious it got rushed out when they saw the mass migrations happening from the latest Twittaster. Bluesky is...well..it will certainly put a ding in their growth. It might push them to get that ActivityPub integration up and running. The ding on growth will be true of Mastodon and other fediverse platforms, too.

@box464 the strategic problem #bluesky has is that they entered by competing on the basis of the protocol, which is now losing to a big network effect. If they start implementing ActivityPub, that makes the protocol completely obsolete and they end up being merely one of many ActivityPub apps, none of which has a network effect against its competitors.
