Almost exactly six months after Twitter got taken over by a petulant edge lord, people seem to be done with grieving the communities this disrupted and connections they lost, and are ready, eager even, to jump head-first into another toxic relationship. This time with BlueSky.
@cypherpunks Interesting point of view. I of course won’t argue that the Bluesky has some innovative ideas that are better than what ActivityPub does. But, one is a tried and tested protocol, so we know its weaknesses, while the other is barely a prototype, so we only know its promises.
Of course in a comparison to real-world examples, idealized thought experiments always win.
Time will tell, and if Bluesky’s protocol that much better, we will start using it eventually.
