Until it isn't. The platform is still single-tracked through an unaccountable billionaire.

Not an exaggeration.

Unfortunately, yes.

What would that be, Meesk? Like, "a Daddy-didn't-hug-me of Meesk just got out of that limo over there."

Dorsey is a best pal of Musk's

Governments switching away from Twitter won't suddenly switch to bluesky after already having set up mastodon, and overall similar incentives (mostly the control that comes with self-hosting) exist for corporations though those don't have an incentive to be early adaptors.

Sure there's always going to be a baseline presence of those types of users on basically all platforms having any kind of general reach precisely for general communication but if you are an architect and want to follow the building code department of the ministry of -- who the fuck is responsible for that? dunno, in any case, no you won't do that on bluesky. Why would they want to get burned twice by a platform when some state IT department somewhere runs software they can use for the purpose.

Maybe I missed something in this thread but it seem like the point is "my friends would be there"? Like the same thing we hear over and over with every shit platform.

I can now comment on Wordpress blogs from Mastodon, follow PeerTube channels, host it myself in my closet, BBC is on there, Flipboard joined, Tumbr said it'll join, Facebook's Threads said they apparently want too. I see goverments and parties there. Yet the argument is "people would be there". No they won't, look at the boring corporate logo, who would leave awesome community of animals for blue box? Or am I missing something?

@MossyFeathers
Also the folks on blue sky recently managed to bully Jack Dorsey into deleting his account there, for being, uh, too close to being Musk.
