William Gillis 🏴The one-two punch of Musk failing to pay his bills by the first (lmao) and Kolektiva's announcement about plaintext caught in a raid (always inevitable with any radical server tho) is handing a victory to Jack and Bluesky by default. I would strongly discourage anarchists from making that move tho, the centralization and politics are both bad there.

@rechelon Also #BlueSky is literally a #SafeSpace for #Neonazis as they don't ban but merely bubblewrap them in the backend.
I mean there will always be neonazis in any anarchist or distributed system because distributed, filters are no more or less inherently potent than defederating, BUT I agree that Bluesky folks demonstrably don't care much and the main Fediverse folks do (at least more), and this is made worse by bluesky still being very centralized.
@rechelon I mean I do try my best to fill that hole and help people to defederate the worst trash, but I'm not perfect and would love feedback and input on that matter...

dangerous misandry@rechelon i haven't seen much other than the big announcement post, but the kolectiva thing seems kinda expected and not that big of a deal so long as you're not trying to organize illegal activity here? which like yeah, that would be an incredibly stupid thing to do lol.
Well there's a lot of reasons not to want "not-illegal" content on here to make its way to cops, but people don't realize that everything on a social media app is basically plaintext including DMs.
@rechelon yeah that makes sense!
Yarrow (they/he)Huh, that's funny, that's the first bad press I'm hearing about BlueSky. They were handing out free codes to all trans people because it was an allegedly trans friendly site. That's the only reason I'm on there.
Phlawless@transmascdruid @rechelon yeah, but you see the trap with that? To get a code you have to admit "I'm trans", an admission which WILL be used against you when appropriate
Oh yikes, I didn't think of that
irishsocialist@rechelon you and others C4SS might have to be more active on here now
TrashkittenDeluxe@rechelon Any anarchist or radical posting here under the impression their activity is private/secure even before the raid is naive to the point of being a fool. Doubly so if they think bluesky is gonna be anything but ten times worse. If you're not approaching any online space under the assumption it is being monitored by the feds, you're not doing radicalism very well.
