I was invited to #Bluesky. It's an awfully smug place and you'd swear that Mastodon never existed or has failed miserably somehow.
I should add that I've only been there for a few days and this is my first impression. There's some fun stuff too, I have to say, including an Alf meme and copious booty pics. But still a bit self-obsessed. Maybe it needs time to germinate the more interesting stuff that I take for granted here.
@Aussiemandias I wonder how advertising laden it will become if a lot of big influencers wind up there.
@pamleo65 Indeed. They clearly intend for it to be global in reach and a true competitor to Twitter but decentralized and less prone to autocratic rule by management. All that is nice, but mixing in the same commercial imperatives will likely land them in just another boat on the same shit creek. I may have gotten it all wrong, though. I'll lurk and watch how it plays out.
