Fin de una era en Bluesky – Jay Graber deja el cargo de CEO tras 5 años liderando la alternativa a X

Bluesky, la red social que nació bajo el ala de Jack Dorsey y se convirtió en el principal puerto de llegada para los «exiliados» de X (Twitter), enfrenta un cambio de mando histórico. Jay Graber ha anunciado oficialmente que dejará su puesto como CEO tras casi un lustro al frente de la compañía. Su salida marca un punto de inflexión para la plataforma, que ha pasado de ser un protocolo experimental a una red con más de 30 millones de usuarios activos (Fuente Bluesky).

Graber, quien fue elegida personalmente por Dorsey en 2021 para dirigir el proyecto AT Protocol, se retira en un momento de éxito sin precedentes para la plataforma, pero también de grandes retos estructurales mientras Bluesky busca su sostenibilidad financiera a largo plazo.

Un legado de descentralización y crecimiento explosivo

Bajo el liderazgo de Jay Graber, Bluesky logró hitos que muchos consideraban imposibles para una red social independiente:

• Apertura al público: Logró la transición crítica de un sistema de invitaciones exclusivas a una plataforma abierta, gestionando picos de tráfico masivos durante las crisis de X.
• El Protocolo AT: Lideró el desarrollo del protocolo descentralizado que permite a los usuarios «ser dueños» de su identidad y sus datos, diferenciándose del modelo cerrado de Meta o X.
• Moderación Personalizada: Implementó herramientas innovadoras como los «feeds» personalizados y las listas de moderación comunitaria, otorgando a los usuarios un control sobre su contenido que no existe en otras redes.

¿Por qué se va ahora?

En su comunicado oficial, Graber expresó que su misión original —crear una red social que no pudiera ser controlada por una sola entidad o individuo— ya se ha cumplido.

«Bluesky ya no es un experimento; es una infraestructura viva. He pasado los últimos años construyendo los cimientos, y ahora es el momento de que una nueva visión lleve a la plataforma hacia su fase de madurez comercial», señaló Graber.

El futuro de Bluesky en un 2026 convulso

La salida de Graber ocurre en una semana de alta tensión en el mundo tecnológico:

1. Guerra de redes sociales: Con YouTube reviviendo sus mensajes directos y WhatsApp cambiando su diseño icónico, la competencia por la atención del usuario es más feroz que nunca.
2. Privacidad bajo ataque: Mientras en Australia se disparan las descargas de VPN por las leyes de verificación de edad, Bluesky se mantiene como uno de los últimos bastiones que no exige documentos de identidad para operar.
3. Sucesión: El consejo de administración de Bluesky ha iniciado la búsqueda de un nuevo CEO. Se rumorea que la empresa busca un perfil con experiencia en monetización ética, posiblemente mediante servicios premium similares al rumoreado WhatsApp Plus.

¿Qué significa para los usuarios?

A corto plazo, no se esperan cambios drásticos en la aplicación. Sin embargo, la gran pregunta es si el sucesor de Graber mantendrá la esencia de «código abierto» y descentralización o si Bluesky sucumbirá a las presiones de los inversores para volverse una red social más tradicional y rentable.

Jay Graber lascia il ruolo di CEO di Bluesky, ricoperto dal 2021, per diventare Chief Innovation Officer. Toni Schneider sarà CEO ad interim. La piattaforma conta ora 40 milioni di utenti.

@mastodonmigration
Who owns BlueSky?
My guesses:
Some petro state sovereign wealth funds.
The Ellisons.
The Winkelvoss twins.
The twins from "The Shining."
Various hedge fund billionaires.
The brothers Trump: Uday and Qusay.
Jeff Bezos.
And,
Your pension fund.

Former Fediverse and Mastodon users who left the Fediverse for Bluesky, coming back home now due to #JayGraber, waffles and her mocking users who are against the pro-transphobe BlueSky platform ...

@Enlightenedharlot tags #JayGraber and even #Waffles have some good posts about it. #bluesky tag may be littered with welcome back messages.

@SnowyCA

#JayGraber is having a meltdown

if you're a lowgrade shitposter like me, you just go "fuck you you fucking fuck" and move on with your hothead loudmouth self

but she is bound to not react in certain ways, it's a highly visible position

the whole waffles routine she is doing...

there's an emotional core to her flippant blitheness which is going to backfire on her, and #bluesky

#socialMedia is addictive

people can get wrapped up in it and crash out

here it's happening to the CEO

some weird shit going down on #bluesky

so there's this #transphobe named #JesseSingal who joined and their account became the most blocked account on bluesky in 12 days

people demanded the account be nuked

but the true weirdness is how the CEO #JayGraber is having a bad reaction to the drama. some blithe emotional displacement with... waffles?

anyway, come to #mastodon #fediverse everyone

we have plenty of #drama too

but any server can suspend anyone

true #decentralization

Jay Graber acting like the head mod of a shitty Fediverse server that's about to get Fediblocked by everyone for obvious bigotry.

I hear the 'phobes are using 'Waffles' as a slur against trans people now, if you needed an update.
Fuck Silicon Valley and fuck Transphobia.

#JayGraber #Bluesky #Mastodon #Fediverse #SocialMedia #SiliconValley #transphobia

Well I didn't think Bluesky would implode this quickly but I underestimated just how toxic Silicon Valley really is.

Trolling users like she's Elon Musk? Does the US have a seemingly endless supply of CEOs who think they're edgy schoolboys?

#JayGraber #SiliconValley

"For the record: I think Jay Graber is a transphobe; I think there's just too much evidence in her behaviour to not read that into her actions at this point. No normal person would go out of their way to court Jesse Singal."

Weekly output: Tech Talks podcast, SpaceX Starship, AI data privacy, Bluesky CEO Jay Graber, agentic AI, scaling AI, Trump scrubs NASA nomination

This week will be my fourth in a row with nights away from home–but since the first of those was something I did for fun, nobody should feel too sorry for me. Plus, last week’s trip for Web Summit Vancouver treated me to some beautiful mountain, water and city scenery. This week’s less-scenic trip is to Santa Clara, where I’m moderating three panels about… wait for it… AI at the TechEx North American conference.

I wrote an extra post for Patreon readers: a breakdown of my inputs and outputs from Google I/O as compared to two prior trips to cover Google’s developer conference.

5/26/2025: Education, Education, Education! The Biggest Lessons from Rio., Tech Talks

I joined this episode of the podcast that my conference pal David Savage does for his employer Nash Squared almost a month ago at Web Summit Rio, when I sat down in front of a microphone with David, Ingra Labs founder Nicole Ingra, and Koala CEO Benjamin Buthmann.

5/28/2025: On Ninth Test Flight, SpaceX’s Starship Rocket Survives Launch But Not Space, PCMag

Instead of taking some time to explore Vancouver after my late-morning arrival, I caught up on e-mail while waiting for my room to be ready, got in an interview for an upcoming story and then watched the livestream of SpaceX’s ninth launch of its gigantic Starship rocket–which proved to be almost as snakebit as the previous two test flights.

5/28/2025: Whose data is it anyway?, Web Summit Vancouver

My first of three panels at the summit had me quizzing Pamela Snively, chief data and trust officer at Telus Communications, and Amin Venjara, chief data officer of ADP.

5/29/2025: Bluesky Still Figuring Out How to Make Money Without Spamming You With Ads, PCMag

I left my schedule open Tuesday evening to see Bluesky CEO Jay Graber’s talk onstage, then finished writing it up early Wednesday morning after jet lag once again had me wake up before 6 a.m.

5/29/2025: The agentic era, Web Summit Vancouver

My panel with Josh Software co-founder Gautam Rege and Outreach CEO Abhijit Mitra, featured something I hadn’t seen before at Web Summit events: The countdown clock moved backwards. I found out afterwards that since the previous speaker had ended early, the stage producers opted to give us his stoppage time after seeing that we were having fun in our conversation.

5/29/2025: Building the new internet: Lessons in simplicity, security, and scale, Web Summit Vancouver

My third panel started 20 minutes after my second and on the same stage, leaving just enough time backstage for a quick sync-up with Tailscale CEO Avery Pennarun. He brought a somewhat cranky view of AI-industry hype that I appreciated very much.

5/31/2025: Trump Hits ‘Undo’ on Private Astronaut’s Nomination for NASA Administrator, PCMag

Maybe because I spent a large part of Friday offline in the sky, I couldn’t resist a chance to cover President Trump withdrawing his nomination of payments billionaire and private astronaut Jared Isaacman as NASA administrator–because writing that post also let me loop in readers about the brutal budget outline for the space agency posted Friday.

Someone tell #JayGraber @jay.bsky.team CEO of #Bluesky that moderation lists designed like this are tools in the hands of #haters, #right-wing #extremists, #racists, #MAGAs, who use them to report block all defenders of #freedom and #democracy. ... 1/2 #Fbr #Resist

"How do you plan to make money?

Subscriptions are coming soon. The next steps are to look into what market­places can span these different applications. Other apps in the ecosystem are experimenting with sponsored posts and things like that. I think ads eventually, in some form, work their way in, but we’re not going to do ads the way traditional social apps did. We’ll let people experiment and see what comes out of it."

https://www.wired.com/story/big-interview-jay-graber-bluesky/

I saw a MAGA following me via the Bridge last week.
It's been so long since I've seen one I was more curious than taken aback.
So yeah, Bluesky is becoming a home for MAGA and Jay obviously doesn't have a problem with that because that's how those creepy yanks operate.
Being exposed to Fascism and Abuse is what we all deserve according to the Tech Bros, and you should see what they're doing to our Kids....

Bluesky Is Plotting a Total Takeover of the Social Internet

All the lefties fled to #Bluesky following Elon Musk’s #Twitter takeover. But CEO #JayGraber says the app is for everyone—and could revolutionize how people communicate online.

So, Jay Graber thinks she can save social media by "handing power to users" 🤔. Apparently, overthrowing the tech overlords is as easy as waving a magic wand and saying "be nontoxic!" 🪄💬. Meanwhile, we'll be over here waiting for unicorns to fly. 🦄✨

My apathetic arrival on Bluesky last spring did not suggest I had much interest or confidence in that decentralized social network: I opened my account on April 25, posted for the first time on April 27, and then waited more than two months to grace Bluesky with a second post.

And yet over the past two months, Bluesky has become my primary successor to Twitter as the platform that now goes by X continues its spiral into conspiracy-theory hell under Elon Musk’s militantly ignorant misrule. Bluesky now ranks as one of the first apps I check in the morning and among those I revisit most often during the day–even though my follower total of 608 is far smaller than the 1,404 following me on Mastodon or the 18,713 followers of my idle Twitter account.

The top reason is the quality of the conversations on Bluesky. I see more engagement with my posts here–see, for instance, the comparison I did in December when I shared the same PCMag story about Comcast rate hikes on Bluesky, Twitter, Mastodon and Meta’s Threads–and that feedback is more likely to leave me more enlightened or at least amused. I keep thinking this won’t last, especially after the platform dropped its invite system in February, but so far Bluesky’s banter remains mostly pleasant.

It also helps that so many of the voices I valued on Twitter have made their way over to Bluesky–and that I’ve had the pleasure of discovering new voices there. And since I’m not getting paid for any of this or deriving other obvious and direct professional benefit (as in, I know how few people clicked through to stories I shared on Twitter), those things matter to me.

Second, Bluesky has advanced faster than I might have expected. A small team of developers led by CEO Jay Graber has built out its foundational feature of account portability with impressive speed. That means not just the option to take my followers to a new account with a different handle, what I call settings portability as offered at Mastodon, but the ability to move my entire presence, including the handle that I’ve set to my robpegoraro.com domain name, to a different host.

That progress in building a legitimate breakthrough in social networking gives me confidence that Bluesky’s developers will check off such lesser to-do details as these items on a product-roadmap update posted May 7: direct messaging, inline video, in-app tools to create and manage custom feeds (for example, my D.C.-area airports feed), and login-security upgrades enabling a choice of multi-factor authentication options.

An edit button, however, is not among those roadmap items, and in that aspect Mastodon maintains a distinct advantage over Bluesky. But while I continue to have good conversations there, too many of the people I liked seeing on Twitter either haven’t set up shop on Mastodon or tried it and have since moved on.

A large fraction of the Twitter diaspora, meanwhile, has looked past both Mastodon and Bluesky to migrate to Threads instead. But while the default “For You” algorithmic feed isn’t as hopelessly vapid in my Threads account as it was six months ago, I still find the notion of handing over that much more of my online social presence to Meta to be profoundly distasteful. I do not need a single point of social-media failure that large, especially not one with Meta’s history of bad-faith behavior towards journalism.

Also distasteful: how I still have to read Twitter because of all the people who have not bailed on that platform and continue to share enlightening tidbits there. I mainly do that through lists I created that help me avoid the clout-chasing randos, conspiracy-lie merchants and fascism-curious creeps now polluting that platform, but because I cover social media I also have to keep up with Musk’s reputational self-immolation through his increasingly delusional tweets.

I don’t know that Bluesky will ever replace what Twitter was, or if anything can or even should. But while much about this project remains uncertain–most of all, if this public-benefit corporation can secure a reliable business model–at least I know my free writing online isn’t underwriting a shitposting billionaire’s vanity value-destruction project.
