Josh "cortex" MillardI’m a cranky old-web person but I’m just genuinely fucking mystified that the reaction to either Jack’s or Zuck’s new corporate social media landgrab isn’t a loud unanimous laughing “no, get fucked”. Twitter and Facebook were a warning, not an instruction manual.
Chris Ferdinandi@joshmillard honestly, if Mastodon worked more smoothly there might not have been a rush to these other platforms. BlueSky smooths over so many of Masto’s rough edges.
aerique@cferdinandi @joshmillard Using all these products I really do not see the supposed difficulties with Mastodon or the smooth Bluesky experience.
It's all about the social graph.
@aerique @joshmillard sounds like you haven’t tried to follow or have conversations with lots of people outside of your particular mastodon instance, then. The whole process is clunky AF, and I often can’t see the original message that people are responding to.
@aerique @joshmillard there is also a general lack of searchability for people who are not on your instance. Bluesky renders that a non-issue entirely.
