I consider BlueSky a “Musk-Free” Twitter for most intents and purposes… At least the protocol is a little more transparent and BridgyFed is an effort to make them interoperable.
Yeah I don’t get why people are so judgy towards it here on lemmy.
It’s like a halfway between twitter and mastodon. And whether you like it or not it has a feature (algorithm) which mastodon doesn’t that makes people far more likely to use it.
It’s not as “good” in terms of not being company owned as mastodon. But it’s add-free, open source, and there’s some proto-federation going on. I mean I’m hosting my own instance there. Mostly it’s got far more funding than mastodon which means it’s already becoming feature rich even though it only released to the public a couple months ago, and it’s far less buggy than mastodon.
Was surprised to see threads take up federation quicker then bluesky, especially since they needed it the least.
They may actually need it more as a figleaf in case the regulators come sniffing round.
Bluesky currently doesn’t really need it, so they are half-arsing it.
Bluesky is federated?
They have a concept of a plan to federate.
Yeah, it’s Federated with loads of cool places that are real, but you don’t know them, they go to a different school.
That’s the intention, but they have their own protocol, not activitypub.
