Rough winter for a blue sky

All you can do is laugh 🤭

> blue check

They are late for the April Fool's.

I hope.

Are they having a problem with impostors?

I know a lot of gender pretenders fled Twitter to go to PedoSky, they're all impersonating someone else.

they're having a problem with not being able to cancel and censor enough 🤣🤙

Bluesky, where users are empowered to cancel and censor other users... #sonotshocked

Hmmm what does this resemble?

Will they add a gender and sexuality verification badge too?

🤣🤣 “trusted verifiers”

This you nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc? If #nostr client does it then good, if bluesky does it then bad? nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg has three tiers of verification already: Silver, Violet for monthly subs, Gold/Legends for $1k donation. Not seeing any backlash against that 🙄 nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m seems to be openly supporting primal!

😄

So, does this remove the final "fig leaf" of decentralization from Bluesky?....

Because now "trusted verifiers" have to be approved by Bluesky the company, rather than Bluesky the protocol?

The Turkish government & Erdogan are they trusted verifiers yet?

Yeah but again, if people don't like it they can use another atproto client that doesn't show these ticks. Choose from iOS, Android, web. Isn't that supposed to be the nsotr way also?

People can also use an alternative X client that doesn't show the bluechecks. What is the difference?

Are there alternative X clients? I remember there were alternative Twitter clients, but I thought Twitter killed that off a few years ago.

Yes, I believe they killed all alternative clients, and that is what Bluesky will do too given enough time, judging for how they're behaving.

So just twitter...

It means they are desperate cuz they have to copy nostr.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

😂

That will only be $15,000. Twitter Verification Controversy 2.0. "History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes."

Start centralized and figure out decentralization later, if at all. 👍

Npub vouching for other npubs might be something we should look at?

Why you so jealous

Ridículo são esses BOTs incontáveis e infindáveis que existem aqui no Nostr. Ridícula é a vergonha que você passou lá no Bluesky diante do Paul Frazee (link abaixo). Aliás, por que você apagou o seu post, Giovanni?

Ridículo é a lista escrota que fizeste para menosprezar quem tem discordâncias ou simplesmente não se simpatiza. Ridículo é idolatrar um negacionista reacionário que afirmava existir fetos abortados na Pepsi para adoçá-la, mas, ao mesmo tempo, dizer que "Darwin estava errado e Jesus Cristo não existiu". Ridículo é não ter capacidade de colocar o seu hostel no nome de um laranja para não ser identificado. Isso sim é ridículo. O blue checkmark é mero protocolo de rede social em *ascensão*, diferentemente do Nostr que permanecerá eternamente estagnado. Aliás, NOSTR (tudo em caixa alta, já que em português trata-se de um acrônimo não pronunciado como uma palavra). Ridículo é pedir para os usuários chamarem de "Nostr".

Dias contados, Mineirinho... A ideia é esvaziar. Quer uma cenoura?
