@inkican @jwz BlueSky was founded by, and is still connected to (despite furious denials from BlueSky advocates) Jack Dorsey. Dorsey is the billionaire that:

- pushed for Twitter to be sold to Musk
- resisted attempts to prevent Twitter from being a cesspool before the sale arguing it was cEnSoRsHiP.
- Is a cryptobro, one of many red flags

I believe jwz's primary complaint is that people who are signing up for BlueSky are putting trust in Dorsey when he's proven to be completely untrustworthy

Most of the people going to BlueSky in the first place are doing so because of actions taken by... Jack Dorsey (namely the destruction of Twitter by selling it to Musk.)

(Worth adding BlueSky has yet to make good on its promise to federate, not even using its proprietary AT protocol, and as far as I'm aware there's not even a reference implementation of the latter available. So at this point, it has all the lock-in problems all the others do, despite their claims to the contrary.)
