What's wrong with Bluesky?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 months ago

yet another corporate social media

It’s repeating the same cycle, for profit social media will inevitably reach the same fate.

how do they make money? there's no ads and it's free

even if they suddenly put ads on it (which would be stupid since no ads is one of their main selling points) it'd still be better than twitter/threads

Phase one enshittification. They're burning VC money to acquire users, who they will then betray.

I'd rather say that it's "learning from history of similar services". Facebook also seemed nice in the beginning.

It has more than 20 users

What is this shit? They need to get companies on their platform right now more than us. They need to become the new default like Twitter was. Queer fourms like here won't have who they need at this stage.

blahaj girl gives me flashbacks to a YouTube video where a biology nerd rated anthropomorphic drawings by their biological accuracy and complained about dorcil fins on a shark person for 5 minutes lol

Ok, but what di each of the drawn characters represent?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The same thing that Weezer represents:

Neurodivergent, transgender, queer girls.

Ok, but what is with the other 3 characters

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I feel called out frfr

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

they're fediverse mascots. i'm not sure about the middle two, but the far left one represents Sharkey (a transfriendly misskey fork) and the far right one represents Pleroma (a fediverse platform written by far right chuds that's been forked into akkoma about it)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

but why does it say bluesky? bleusky is not fedi

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

I recognize Akko but who are the others?

I'm surprised the shark isn't Gura.
