@alissaazar xitter2.0 what's the surprise? Blewski is the new nazi bar. People remain there by *choice*, like they do at linkedin, facebook, substack, etc, etc...

@kittylyst it's as if - and stay with me, here - all of us NOT at the nazi bar had told them morons at #bluesky that it's just #xitter 2.0
Huh.
Who coulda foreseen this coming...
ALL OF US HERE, that is who.
Here I am, yet again, BEGGING people who are writing about the erosion and take down of Democracy in the United States by a fascist regime, and are STILL publishing their stuff at the nazi bar of #substack
Please, please, please... be COHERENT... there are better, easier, less expensive, more accessible hosting services that do NOT giv money and a platform for the techbros donating that money to groups which directly fund and design the fascist take over of America.
"OMG, so many bot accounts in the nazi bar I went to" they say, after moving to nazi bar.
#BlueSKy IS a nazi bar. Leaving the #Fediverse to go where "the numbers" are and then whining about how come it's the same shit as xitter is silly, at best.
Enjoy the cake you baked.
No, thank you. I don't want ANY "starter pack" or to be in any starter pack.
If I wanted people to tell us who and what to see, I'd be at blewski.
I am at the #Fediverse #Mastodon because I don't want anyone telling me what I see or who I follow, thank you.
@mastodonmigration not gonna happen.
They tolerate the nazi bar, because the bulletin board there generates numbers for them.
@bruce @Remittancegirl @FeloniousPunk "willing to coddle nazis" also includes those for whom inertia is more powerful than decency, mind you.
In that sense EVERYONE at #blewski is coddling nazis, because they are still there.
It's NOT as if they couldn't possibly know how the very centralized OWNERSHIP of #Bluesky thinks, by now..
The excuses ran dry a loooonnng time ago.
@ancient_catbus bookmark this, because it's so fucking happening, soon.
Slapping a [ COLOR ] to "Sky" doesn't fix any of the inherent, essential issues with #BlueSky, a #DTBO (douchebag techbro billionaire owned) #SocialMedia platform.
It's still #blewski, a VERY CENTRALIZED, very corporate, very fashy friendly (comply ahead) venue. It's just #xitter 2.0, as amply demonstrated by their track record of always doing the wrong thing.
it's naive, nay, downright *dumb* to try HARD, to PAY to reforge chains to shackle yourself
Freedom is best.

Eventually, I suspect, someone will - hopefully briefly - find a way to monetize an instance of mastodon.
And then they will be de-federated from the instances that matter, where community exists, and they will be left in their own little walled garden of propaganda, spam, scammers. Exactly how it is at #xitter #bluesky #threads #facebook #telegram #linkedin and other #DTBO shitholes.
You won't see the "influencers" coming from #bluesky, because they LIKE the nazi bar. It keeps them PAID.
The #Fediverse won't fuel hate-spreading with financial or monetary rewards.
We have had waves of douchebags trying to monetize this place. They all gave up same day, and we are fucking PROUD of that.
You can tell the mentality of the peeps who were raised in Web2.0 corporate owned walled gardens, the filth left behind the steve jobs (may it rot in hell), because ANYTHING remotely related to computers or the internet for them is an "app"
Mastodon is not an "app". Mastodon instances are a part of the Fediverse, compliant with ActivityPub, and the legal entity named Mastodon GmbH who owns and runs mastodon.social also issues a software client for that service.
Subtoot:
Anyone who believes #bluesky is a "lesser evil" than #Fediverse is welcome to return to xitter, because that is EXACTLY what blewski is: xitter2.0 waiting to happen.
Given the recent developments of age verification cancelling access, I'd give it a couple months.
@tchambers facebook, threads, bluesky are the WRONG answer, as the current events have clearly shown.
EVERY corporate owned (yes, blewski is vc crypto techbro owned) is a toxic negative entity. NO, none of them are the Fediverse, just unfortunately "bridged" to here.
No exceptions.
@criminalerin #blewski is a cesspool of vc crypto owned techbro bullshit.
Blewski is just xitter2.0 waiting to happen, a scam and trap, doesn't matter what the naive or scammer in simpsonize-me AVR paladin of the techbros says.
Hang around, here it *is* much better.
