Who owns Bluesky? What’s the role of former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey? What’s Bluesky’s business model? And what prevents another Elon Musk from buying and destroying it 10 years down the line?

@micahflee answers some of your Bluesky questions. theintercept.com/2023/06/01/bl

#MicahLee dragged "#Mastodon" as "notoriously confusing" to use and #BlueSky as having "great" vibes.

Would y'all like the @ s of some not-white, cis het #Fediverse members for whom #BlueSky's "vibes" ain't so great?

The platform has a moderation problem. A severe one.

As for "Mastrodon" being tough to join: how about #CalKey or #PixelFed or one of the other platforms in the #Fediverse?

Somehow we expect more from The Intercept, but no.

The funny thing is, your reply comes across to me as mostly confirming the article.

Mastodon people get defensive! says the article, as you get defensive.

Mastodon is confusing! says the article as you list off the alternatives that help make Mastodon confusing.

And so on.

I just appreciate how you don’t seem to particularly care about supporting the case that you object to, or even working to improve things.

You’re harming your own case, but nevermind that, huh? I’ll just piss right off.
