He says X is for freedom of speech, and it is an everything app

but, freedom can’t exist without privacy.

Everything app = monopoly = all in one

    I want to move to bluesky so bad but I just can’t get a damn invite. I applied via email months ago. This is their moment & I kinda feel like the invite system is holding them back. (But I do understand why it was implemented.)

    Edit: omg you guys are so sweet. I only just started using this place but I’m sold. You’re awesome!

            It’s very… dramatic over there, and I know it’s supposed to be a beta (trust me, I know) but there seems to be a lot of missing functionality. I pop in every few days and it’s like there a new moral outrage about bluesky each time.

              I mostly follow people in the art/illustration community so I’m not really seeing what you’re complaining about, but to be fair your complaint could be levied against basically every big online community out there right now including the fediverse.

                I am mostly judging by the “hot” feed, since I only follow a few people that I knew via Twitter, and to a significant degree you’re right-- there was the same kind of drama on kbin and lemmy when I joined. (I checked out threads for ~30 seconds so I can’t say about there) I don’t remember anything like that on Mastodon, but I’m sure it’s there. It seemed more rapid-fire on bluesky. Specifically there seemed to be a lot of hate against the devs on Bluesky for various reasons.

                In any event, it’s a pretty big echo chamber right now but that’s to be expected while it’s in invite-only. I’m sure it will settle out when it opens up to the general public.
