X shuts down apps that show its posts. Bluesky exists to ernable it. One of these networks is about promoting freedom, the other is not.

nitter.net is down. xcancel.com may go soon, too. all the respect to the folks at nitter for their services so far, but to be honest, X completely locking itself out of the web is probably a net positive for us all in the long term

This is not the same thing, but the single most common reason my friends won’t use Bluesky is because when is end them a post via iPhone text message it doesn’t show the post, but instead directs them to the app. I think this is a setting on some posts. Everyone hates this.

Like what’s the point of this from the perspective of either a user’s experience inside this app, the company’s desire to spread use of the app, or someone receiving this in a text instead of the actual post?

It was an unintended consequence of the setting - to fix it, we will have to make it so that the post page's metadata shows the post content to logged out users. I think we should look at doing that, but it's a shift from the setting's intent
