Especially when they promote and use it out of “moral motivation” to “fight against twitter/big tech”. You’re still using a platform owned by one company. They’re not really decentralized. There’s nothing stopping them to go down the same path twitter did. They’re funded by some questionable investors… Or, to quote something I recently read: “BlueSky is decentralized in the same way Total Energies is a green company.”
Fight big tech, yes, but know which platforms to use. And to counter all “but Mastodon etc. are boring”: the more people making the shift to the fediverse, the less boring it gets.
Edit to add: “shame” might be a heavy choice of words, but I don’t know another term haha (English not a first language and all that)
Will Bluesky eventually enshittify? Probably.
Should people come to Mastodon instead? Of course.
Are there far bigger concerns at the moment? Absolutely.
Whatever Bluesky may or may not turn out to be, the important thing right now is to get people off of X, which we already know is a nazi controlled space. We don’t sabotage that goal by being high and mighty and telling people they’re not leaving to the right place.
One battle at a time.
I’d rather not create a system where people are constantly looking to create enemies. Like move on from Twitter and Facebook products by all means.
These systems aren’t home, and they aren’t our friends. You use them, and the individuals who would use and love Lemmy/Mastodon may not be the same people who enjoy bluesky(for now).
Don’t create out groups when you don’t need to, it just makes you look a little crazy to normies.
I get that! And it’s not really about creating enemies. More of a digital utopia where we see what’s the better option
Noble purpose, I feel it.
