I’m still active there, but I’m on all the platforms to learn how they work and see what’s up with them. I’m also active on x and threads and mastodon, and scuttlebutt, and t2, etc….

I think honestly until bluesky turns on atproto and federation we won’t know much about it and how it works.

My fear is that they’ve irreparably damaged their reputation before they can even get to atproto federation.

Yeah, I wish the’d started out in the open. At this point, I almost wonder if they should not put bsky.app on the main aproto network at all, just leave it as a space for folks on it, invite the community to moderate it. Then users could choose to migrate to the main net or stay on bsky. To me there’s nothing out and out wrong with wanting a more tightly controlled social media space. It’s just you should be able to opt in or out, and know what the rules are, and have the autonomy to use the tech without the restrictions.

Honestly, that makes a lot of sense. The community there has zero understanding of what the team is trying to build and actively attacks some of the concepts that are at the core of atproto or anything like it.

Keep it as its own island might not be terrible.
