I'm @marcoarment on Bluesky if you're over there.

I don't know if it'll stick yet, but the crowd there is VERY different so far from what I've found here — much smaller, of course, but also much more diverse. It's refreshing.

@marcoarment are you not concerned that it's essentially just Twitter all over again? Seems like we're jumping the gun on Mastodon not fulfilling our expectations. Yes, this platform has been for over 5 years, but it does not seem like it is not allowed to mature and must be a clone of Twitter. I don't want Twitter all over again. Bluesky seems like just placing a label over top of Twitter from a few years ago. (I said seems because I do not have an account there.)
@markgdavis @marcoarment exactly. Just another corporate social network that will end up sellung user data and litter users with vomit inducing amounts of ads.
