This is an interesting article. Somewhat though not entirely reassuring re Bluesky’s ownership and business plan - though I have questions over why it chose to build a new federating protocol from scratch. The article also rehashes some tired old myths about Mastodon. https://theintercept.com/2023/06/01/bluesky-owner-twitter-elon-musk/

@ottocrat I’ll take a more critical line and say this article is a mix of puff and guff. I don’t believe the financial bits, they’re going to run into centralisation problems if they expand further, and I fail to see the point of a portable protocol if you’re the only company running it.
