"I’m not on Mastodon because there’s nobody there, there’s not enough users to make it succeed, my whole community is on Twitter and don’t want to migrate and… hey… I now have a Bluesky account! Please follow me on Bluesky, it’s very cool, it belongs to a billionaire but is decentralised. Or at least, the billionaire promises us it will be, which is cool."

@ploum A site ran by a billionaire has foul content. Well, you know how things go, policy and moderation is impossible to get right at scale. You can't make everyone happy.
Oh boy, there is an obscure site (which happens to use the AP protocol) no one here is ever going to interact with (federation is lazy / conservative, as well as other things) which contains content which offends me. I am outraged.
I saw those very examples once from their circles. There is also nothing which can really change the calculus for them, they really don't want to use a platform not run by a Silicon Valley tech bro.
