Folks Jack Dorsey has zero to do with Bluesky. Early on he was spouting his usual bullshit about unmoderated platforms and the users chased him off the site. (He doesn’t believe in moderation but can’t handle getting yelled at.) Not long after that he quit the board and washed his hands of the site.

That means it's working.
Not all opinions deserve an audience or a platform. Look at where we are now because of so-called "free speech." 🙄
Go fuck yourself.
Sincerely,
Civilization.
As someone who was around in the very early days of Twitter, back before replies even, it wasn’t a mystery to any of us back then that Jack was kind of a douche, but he got rich & people forgot about that.
Is Jay Graber a decent human being?
Following you, and I hope you'll follow back so I can amplify your message.
Take care. Stay chill. 💙💙💙
i hope this can happen
Not every social media developer can be TOM.
Nostr has no concept of moderation or safety features beyond being able to mute people.
Now guess where Jack is
problem: it has no concept of moderation beyond mutelists, blocking does not exist
oh and it involves a lot of Bitcoin and specifically Lightning
Paternoster elevators are named that because they look like the rosary beads that people use when praying the “Pater Noster” (“Our Father”).
Cryptocatholocism is catnip to rightoid Tech Bros, so it tracks.

You're Very Welcome Jennifer!!! 🙏🏽
Well I'm wrong on that one.
Bluesky is a public benefit corporation that aims to give creators control over content instead of a top-down entity.
Jay Graber and the Bluesky team own Bluesky, a decentralized social media platform:
Jeremie Miller: creator of XMPP and Jabber, Miller serves on the Bd of directors.
Mike Masnick: founder of Techdirt, Masnick serves on the board of directors.
He studied Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Missouri-Rolla.
Needs a bit of work...
Imagine thinking you're a billionaire thought leader and really only coming across as a Dollar Store Thurston Howell III.
All wealthy tech CEOs are loyal to their own tribe, it seems.
Thanks for the insights.
I may unplug her😡

We need safe social media. And he doesn't like safe social media.

I did not know that!
If I go out somewhere at night, I don't want to go a large bar or club that has 0 security in case something pops off.
They simply want to be awful and post the awful shit without any consequences and they want an audience to see it.
I'm sorry I missed the chasing off of Fallon, though.
The people with the money don't like it when there is no moderation.
Mitsubishi and Toyota aren't going to want their ads next to posts about Pearl Harbor or Unit 731.
Moderation gives platforms useful value, period. You can complain about bad modding, but don't complain that modding exists.
In January of 2020, most of our 4k global employees were gathered in a convention hall when he randomly FT'd Elon and it showed on the Jumbotron. I've never witnessed the O2 being sucked out of a room faster
