there's quite a few people in this thread with the same weird vitriol as reddit had.
if someone uses bluesky and you don't, then why make yourself upset over it? i have both mastodon and bluesky. i use both.
I'm not sure why everything has to be a weird competition. some weird us vs. them shitfight.
its literally just a social media platform. jeez.
Because I have seen 10 posts about how Bluesky is the new Twitter on my Lemmy feed in two days. I overreacted a bit, but what you say goes both ways. Absolutely use what you like but there is no need to spam a new platform like that.
its because of all the new accounts that have been made there. that's likely why you're seeing so many posts about it.
a mass exodus from one twitter to another is a big deal for a lot of people.
Use word filters for the things you don't want to see.
The same happened when everyone moved over from Dig to Reddit back in the day. It's really annoying for like 2 weeks with everyone talking about it, and then it calmed down.
2 weeks? it was a lot longer than that. I mean hell there was a god damn multi-part comic about the "war" between digg and reddit. early reddit was a cringefest.
I do remember there was a sub about it. Don't remember it infecting much beyond that though after the first few weeks. Perhaps I'm misremembering.
Because we all hate corpos.
May the corpos die
And we know what kind of control the platform owners have. "Just" doesn't cut it I think.
Do you just call the owners of any company a Nazi? How are you defining Nazis here?
Judging by your upvotes I must be out of the loop on something here.
I tried to look into this claim and all I found was a CEO that's also a software dev Jay Graber: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Graber (Nothing controversial that I could find in her posts at a cursory glance)
A software dev that worked on XMPP (Jeremy Miller): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremie_Miller
And the CEO and founder of TechDirt (Mike Masnick): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Masnick
I've never looked into Blockchain Capital much before, some quick search results show that they have invested in BlueSky (not enough to own/run the company from what I could find), but I don't see anything that associates them with nazis.
How are you defining nazis here? What leads you to believe that Blockchain Capital is a nazi company? What links are there from Steve Banon to Blockchain Capital?
