Then they laugh at Bluesky
Then they fight Bluesky
Then they join Bluesky
Then they laugh even harder at Bluesky

I really don't know what to make of it. Seems okay, but some of the built-in mechanics around content blocking and block lists, combined with another "Trust and Safety" moderation style, seems to ensure that Bluesky, as a culture
1) Wants an echo chamber
2) Trusts that only the Bad People anathema to the echo chamber will be deplatformed
The place still cannot seem to become self-aware of how hurt and afraid and hostile twitter has made them
They won't survive without an enemy which they had on twitter, they might get some action with new users (who will find being called a fascists shocking). Then the purity spiral continues as they block each other into oblivion lol.
