We can avoid it ever becoming shit when a wannabe dictator buys it if we make it impossible to sell: like mastodon and other federated options.

Right, that's the sure-fire way. But if a platform is better in some way than another, I'm inclined to use it, as long as it's morally just to do so.

I like Bluesky because it's more like Twitter was. But I like Mastodon because of how liberated it is. So I'll use both, probably, until Bluesky turns to shit (or doesn't).
