Erin ConroySo, it seems like not everyone has noticed that #Bluesky is the only social media competitor that Musk never banned & always allowed to advertise itself to Twitter users.
Isn't that interesting.
Norobiik @@chargrille I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop for a while now. #Elon always goes ballistic in public re: Twitter competitors, but not a single peep about #Bluesky. My guess is the two plan to have some sort of payments/crypto collaboration eventually.
Feel truly sorry for all the people who fled to bluesky thinking it's a haven. It isn't.

Jack: "Twitter Inc could also use [Bluesky] as foundation."
"According to the filing, Dorsey and Musk “may be deemed to have formed a group” for the purposes of part of the filing, a designation that indicates the pair were working together on the buyout."

Christos Argyropoulos MD, PhD@chargrille @Norobiik Bankrupt Twitter and obtain the tech infrastructure during a firesale and move the base over to bluesky. Solves the insolvency of twitter and jumpstarts it under a different name for a fraction of the price.
I have a Bluesky account and the experience is much much worse (slow app, limited features eg lists, QT/like algos up and running). I think it makes more sense for ppl to fork 6 to 7 dollars a month and run their personal mastodon instance
