Gregory's ServerBluesky was announced in December 2019. It is now December 2021. The community Discord server is still arguing about what identity is.

@Gargron Apparently, Birdland only has one guy working on Bluesky, and no internal team. So Bluesky is really more of a PR event or a distraction than something real. Time spend on their Discord arguing about vapourware is probably time wasted. If you take a drink every time you see a cryptocurrency mention in the Bluesky community Discord, you will die.  @frumble Hast du das schon gesehen, ohne zu platzen? @Gargron The token is made on the Binance blockchain and can be purchased at Pancakeswap. @Gargron The idea is that 20-30 percent of the total amount of the tokens will be distributed in support of people who contribute to the development of Mastodon and the fediverse, and running servers.  @Gargron BTW, while I know you're online, did you see: https://mastodon.social/@dheadshot/107351618004573299 . I don't know if that's intended behaviour or not...  @gargron tbf i think that is an incredibly fantastically hard problem that underlies much of the difficulty of connected mediums. but yeah, still, seems ultra lacking in real initiative & progress. @Gargron half of the programmers in the world argue about whether they need an atomic spinlock or not @Gargron we are as thomas aquinas, arguing about the nature of the soul.  @Gargron Kinda weird that they didn't just decide to adopt ActivityPub (which IIRC Jack Dorsey explicitly mentioned as an option when Bluesky was announced!) after *two years* of working on the topic. Assuming, of course, they're serious about the idea in the first place...  |
@Gargron Is this a game? :thinktink:β
