Can we just appreciate for a moment, that there's still no ads here? Companies would blast 400 gabillion Terabytes of ads into your brain the moment you wake up if they had the chance so like????? im happy bro

i'm really glad it's like this now, but ik it won't last forever. they're able to sustain things currently bc of investor money but it will run out soon and investors are expecting them to turn a profit sooner or later. rn all they have for revenue is the custom domains which is nowhere near enough.
ik they say they plan to have a premium subscription in the near future but i still think it won't be enough. remember, cohost promised no ads and data selling forever with only a premium subscription for revenue and they ran out of money and are shutting down bc of it....
investor money and domain sales (aka the custom bsky names some ppl have.)
however it isn't sustainable. they say they plan to release a premium subscription soon but i still think it won't be enough to keep bsky running long term. unfortunately, we will have ads eventually. i'm sure of it.
Listen! I'm not naive, Blue Sky's obviously not going to last with just prescriptions. They're going to run ads on this site sooner later, I just want to enjoy it while it lasts. 😁
I can't wait for them to become publicly traded. I'll ride it all the way up and deal with whatever they gotta do to keep it nice and happy like this.
I love the sense of community, though I haven't gotten to experience it fully myself.
Cause this place has 0 desirability for advertisers or most companies. Some are dipping their toes in to see the returns such as Capcom but yeah. There (supposedly) is no magical algorithm that would push them nor any monetary return for being seen or metric to analyze engagement. (For now).

How is Bluesky covering the server costs?

They aren't in a box labeled ads, but ... they aren't people.
Wouldn't surprise me if bsky eventually starts having sponsored posts just to keep servers running
