  3. I'm sorry if I bang on about this, but since October BlueSky has effectively been owned by one of Steve Bannon's mates via a company called "Blockchain Capital LLC".

    Do most BS users not realise this?

    Enshitification is guaranteed. I'd give it 3-5 years max.

  4. If you're comfortable providing free content for (checks) "Blockchain Capital LLC" and have faith that they won't enshittify BlueSky, then good luck to you.

    I'm sure you know that Blockchain Capital is now the majority BlueSky shareholder, and that it's run by a friend of Steve Bannon's. But hey... maybe they'll turn out to be good nazis, unlike Twitter.

    Sorry... but I have trouble with people trusting the blockchain bros & hoping they've found Twitter Mk II.

    "1/There is nothing more embarrassing than watching hordes of liberals willingly herd themselves into a pen funded by #Russian capital. 👉Bluesky’s principal funder #BlockchainCapital LLC is run in part by #KirillDorofeev, who also works for VK, #Russia’s state social network👈..."

  6. Maybe because since October 2024 its majority owner is a company called "Blockchain Capital LLC", which just happens to be owned by one of Steve Bannon's mates.

    Could be that. Just a thought.

  7. Considering Bluesky?

    Please bear in mind that #Bluesky is:

    —Funded by #BlockchainCapital:
    • co-founded by Steve Bannon pal Brock Pierce, a major crypto advocate, and close friend of Eric Adams
    • run in part by Kirill Dorofeev, who also works for #VK, Russia’s state social network.

    —A venture-funded startup, so once they need to monetize they're likely to turn to an exploitative business model.

    "crypto bros at #BlockchainCapital bought a huge stake in #BlueSky just a few weeks ago. Like these are basically the same crypto bros who just helped #ElonMusk buy Twitter. They might even be literally the same people (I strongly suspect they are but I'm too lazy to check). Either way #BlockchainCapital was co-founded by #BrockPierce, who also brought you #Tether, AKA the company that Trump's transition team chairman manages $120 billion for."

  11. For some reason people fleeing the sinking #Twitter / #X ship for #BlueSky don't seem to be aware of the fact that crypto bros at #BlockchainCapital bought a huge stake in the company just a few weeks ago. Like these are basically the same crypto bros who just helped #ElonMusk buy Twitter. They might even be literally the same people (I strongly suspect they are but I'm too lazy to check). Either way #BlockchainCapital was co-founded by #BrockPierce, who also brought you #Tether, AKA the company that Trump's transition team chairman manages $120 billion for. Pierce is also a friend of the #Netanyahu family.

    You don't have to take my word for it. Here's the official press release: bsky.social/about/blog/10-24-2

    Moving to BlueSky is not an escape. Growing a base there is just putting in a bunch of work to create a platform that will be co-opted by crypto bros as soon as X breaks in half.
