And all three of them (the original shitter, fake shitter aka bluesky, and the new shitter — this one) are loginwalled shitholes.

Regardless of what people think about AI, must be a real slap in the face to go to that homepage and see AI-generated copy, go to the “pay $40 for early access” page, and see AI-generated logos for the various paid tiers.
Looks like let another cynical attempt to cash in on old IP. The last one was Digg, which was just as disappointing, but it’s actually operational and you can see it suck (read: repost Twitter tweets) in real time.

In the era of social network fatigue… If not decentralized is a no go.

“We are a small company, we have investors, and we have a product,” Stephen Coates, one of Operation Bluebird’s cofounders, told Ars.
So a company. As a wise man once said, “It’s a trick. Get an ax.”

Interesting to see the first pre-enshittified social network.

You guys are so negative. Critical support for our Twitter comrades is necessary in their quest to annoy the absolute shit out of Musk.
