Comment on Bluesky

  What does that change? Its about the system and their ability to do so from a central control point. Bluesky was doomed before it started with how it is set up and governed.

    Exactly. At least with Mastodon and all Fediverse platforms you don’t have some overlord who can just remove anything on a whim.

    Bluesky was never the solution to the Twitter problem.

      Yes you do? If the moderator or admin of your instance doesn’t like something, it’s gone.

      Sure you could post to another instance, but the line of posting to another instance or posting to another service is a thin one.

      I fully agree that Bluesky is far from the distributed haven it might claim to be, but just because it makes a decision that any Fediverse instance might have made doesn’t mean it’s over.

      Bluesky has problems, but those problems are still within the realm of fixable. Fediverse alternatives may be better, but Bluesky is still fine.

        An instance mod isn’t the same as corporate ownership who can purge anything from anywhere at any time.

  The fact it was taken down tells you everything you need to know about BS.

    All it means is that one moderator made a dumb decision. But I’m sure that’s never been a problem on the fediverse.

    Dunno why blow it out of proportion, either a moderator with bias or mass reports from fans of their daddy being made fun of, which in return triggered an automatic removal of the post.
