Bluesky has to be running a massive propaganda push. I see so many lies saying they are decentralized or like here saying they are a non-profit.

This shit is evil. Whoever is making these fliers is not being honest.

It’s more important to get people off twitter. Mastodon just doesn’t have the right pull right now.

Regardless, flat-out lying and saying that Bluesky is non-profit is a bad look.

I agree.

Taking sides in a ~~war~~ kerfuffle between billionaires that don't care about you is just weird nonsense.

Go as fossy as possible and support your devs directly.

Shout-out to Sharkey! We're young, hip and have reactions other than "heart". Plus, we can talk to Mastodon instances and it all just works. Ever thought what your social network needed was unlockable achievements? We've got that, too!

You made me look up Sharkey and create a Sharkey account, just letting you know you had some impact.

uis sick, easy to run an instance with yunohost too, I always wanted discord like emojis for twitter posts

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

Awesome! I hope you enjoy it :)

Neat - any public instances accepting registrations?


btw lil formatting quirk on Safari iOS (maybe just appropriate punishment 😉) if y’all know who has edit access

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 weeks ago

There's some: https://sharkey.fediverse.observer/list . The "active users" listed on that chart is inaccurate, though.

I'll see if I can figure out who can fix that formatting quirk (probably not me, also am afk/at a convention this weekend 😊).

It's basically filling the void the Xitter transition created. Either way, we got a massive boost in the decentralised space.
