Bluesky has seen its user base soar since the U.S. presidential election, boosted by people seeking refuge from Elon Musk’s X, or wanting an alternative to Meta’s Threads and its algorithms.
But little by little, they started asking Jay and the team for moderation tools, and to kick people off. And unfortunately they followed through with it.
This bit I don’t get. Even on Lemmy and Mastodon we need moderation tools and arguably the current provisions aren’t fit for purpose. It’s not something that can just be pushed to the individual users and most hobbyists who want to spin up public servers don’t want to be spending their time wading through reports and CSAM. How to provide a safe environment for users is still an unsolved problem in the fediverse so it’s no wonder people drift to corporate controlled servers which say least nominally have the resources to do something about it.
they’re not creating “another one”. Dorsey is already made and he seems to be immune to whatever is working elon’s intestines.
ps i don’t care a bit about Dorsey either. I just see a difference.
Dorsey already left Bluesky back to Xitter because he didn’t like their moderation practices. I’m talking about Jay Graber.
Dorsey went back to Xitter!
Why would he do that 🤦
sorry, ignore my previous comment. This too! I need to read a little on this now. Apparently i missed that move

No problem, not everyone is up to speed on everything. Here’s some reading material.
Went back to Xitter and started funding Nostr.
