Just noting the many issues I’m seeing talked about on r/BlueSkySocial with the childish management. Not saying that most people are about to leave, but this /could/ cause a downstream effect?
Most of them will probably go to Threads (because Zuck is a fact of life, like death and taxes, and already owns their Instagram connections) or to Xitter (better the devil you know, and all that). The fediverse is just too weird, between the multiple servers thing and the furries and preachy trekkies and weird customs like posting photos of flowers and not deadnaming people and stuff.
Aren’t both xitter and bsky were full of furries? That’s their main source of exposition
I thing the biggest thing people don’t want to live without is an algorithm…
Is Bluesky about to implode? I guess I’m ootl
Interesting, we are seeing both reddit and bluesky having…issues…all around the same time.
Bluesky won’t implode, at least not yet, and only a small number of its users would end up on the fediverse. I’m sure they’d love any of the sharkey/iceshrimp instances, if they could figure which one to join
Probably not. One of the main complaints of Mastodon I’ve seen on bsky is that it’s “Twitter but run by Reddit mods” so I doubt they’d be interested in here.
Its so weird the things people say about on mastodon are so far removed from my experience.
Have these people been on mastodon or just like to join the meme train?
I don’t doubt some people have run into issues with Mastodon, like not being able to follow accounts because of defed, but I doubt it’s as prevalent as the criticism makes it out to be. It’s also a wild as the same is literally true of Bluesky, like there are Bluesky accounts you have to jump to Blacksky to view because the CEO of Bluesky got her feeling hurt because she didn’t like being criticised for hosting transphobes who break the site’s own rules.

I am glad Mastodon is semi-matured now. Unlike peertube and FB alternatives.
Is there any alternative to Facebook really? And what is FB supposed to be anyways?
I’ve heard people talk about frendica but I have no clue if it’s any good. I think it’s meant to be a way to connect to people you know in passing IRL. Or that’s how I’ve seen it be used.
Maintaining company, personal, joke pages from a single account and posting events. Also, private post based groups.
If the management on BlueSky is getting bad users could just move to another instance right? …Right?
/s if it’s not obvious

Bluesky is centralized service operated by a for profit company

Imagine getting your worldview form reddit lmao
A bit late on the party, but while AT Protocol has greater potential for centralization, still it can be made decentralized, and so some new instances started appearing such as blacksky.community and deer.social. Also saw announcements for a “Northsky Social” and an “Eurosky”, but neither launched yet. Still, new instances appearing would slow down an influx of new users to alternative platforms.
