Do you always make up bullshit without confirming if you’re right or wrong?

It’s multiple factors but boils down to them being easier for non-techie people to access. It’s also a culture issue. Bluesky culture is more like Mastodon than not but it is more diverse and shifts younger. Lots of gatekeepers and harassers ruined it for would be mastodon users particularly Black and Brown folk that were harassed out of the space. One of the biggest minority ran instances was shut down due to overwhelming harassment. People also don’t want to be preached to nor want to be told how to use their own damn social account and be told they’re using it wrong. Most people legit just wanted Twitter without Musk.

This is weird on multiple levels, Bluesky code is Open Source, it’s federated and no one gives a damn about it being a PBC. It’s mostly about culture why people have gone to Bluesky and Threads

On Bluesky most of the algorithms are made by users, that’s another plus

I would like to see more creators and more people from the sports world. But, the subcultures of Lemmy and Mastodon won’t allow for that

So weird that no one mentioned https://micro.blog/ Which only after Mastodon was the second platform to adopt ActivityPub.

This makes me think of Fediverse client SoraSns. It used on-device ML and has algorithmic choice. It’s awesome that everything is done on-device

Not as censorship resistant as Nostr

Several of you seem to be misunderstanding. When he says “like Twitter” it’s not in the negative ways you are thinking. It’s in the negative ways he’s thinking. Meaning censorship and being able to ban accounts. He doesn’t want that. Mastodon would have the same criticisms if he commented on it.

Why would that matter?

Not at all.

Very valid points. Medium and Substack will remain popular due to how easy it makes it

It is actively developed. Some forks are Firefish, Foundkey, Sharkey, IceShrimp

The Fediverse will grow. Especially, with Threads joining and potentially Tumblr and Post.news. You’re right that the Fediverse we know will disappear. I believe there will and needs to be a great schism. You have strong actions of Lemmy and Mastodon that are anti Threads and anti growth, let’s call them small fedi. Then you have those that will federate with Threads and want the Open Social Web to become the major focus and how most people engage socially online, big fedi. You already have a culture with a lot of infighting and some fundamental incompatibilities, it will only get stronger. It’s best to separate now.

How would that work?

It’s smart to offload the legally tricky parts. Versus here those fall onto admins

You mean how people treat Mastodon.social?

There will be two apps built on this framework out by the spring

There is also the Dot Social podcast
