So let me see if I have this right:

Not only did BlueSky accept $100 million in funding from a Bain Capital Crypto - an obviously crypto associated investment firm - but a few weeks ago the notably transphobic CEO stepped down, not to leave the company, but to allow an AI-boosting, investment fund asshole figurehead take over the CEO position while she continues to pollute the C-suite elsewhere?

Yeah.

Yeah, that sounds like it's going to turn out GREAT.

I am POSITIVE this is going to be the bastion of safety and community that people keep telling me it is. I'm sure NOTHING will go sideways.
