    I mean…yeah. The guy who created Bluesky is the same guy who created Twitter originally. What makes you think anything would be different? I’m honestly surprised they’re even humoring the idea of decentralization.

      I really really REALLY don’t get people who leave one company turned bad to turn to another company trying the same thing.

      They’ll be the good guys for sure!

      He also left Bluesky in 2024 after it didn’t become the libertarian techbro wankfest he envisioned and was instead heavily populated by folks who didn’t want to slob Elon’s knob.

        He publicly distanced himself but Bluesky’s ownership is very opaque and they do dishonest PR very well so I would not be at all surprised if Dorsey still owns a part of it.

      I do think the people behind it like the idea of data portability and decen, just not enough to compromise their business for it.

        This seems to be the closest to a reasoned argument in this thread. Realistically, what should they be doing differently?
