The worst thing about Musky Twitter is the direct monetization. Subscribers get kickbacks for rage-baiting disinformation. All Bluesky needs to be is *not that*.

I think the ethos and tech are intertwined. I like that it's not a big tech company backing the platform like Meta with Threads. While not activitypub, it supports federation on its own. And the tools for moderation mean it can be a healthier option.

i signed up for bluesky a little over a year ago. it was invite only and i got the invite around the same time as threads went live. the experience here wasn’t as good so i spent more time on threads at the time. i can say, with confidence, that’s not the case anymore.

Bluesky is still in its infancy who knows what it will become. Social media websites change and evolve over time. The idea that the Bluesky will stay a wholesome, left-leaning echo chamber may not remain true forever. Bluesky may be purchased by another megalomaniac Billionaire years from now.
