- Benjamin Sandofsky: The End of The Twitter Era
Bluesky follows the classic crypto marketing strategy of rallying users behind a cause while downplaying their profit-driven motives. They make a big deal about filing as a Public Benefits Corporation, which means next to nothing. (…) Claims that their platform is open and decentralized are mostly bullshit.
Lesenswerte Analyse von Christine Lemmer-Webber:
Bluesky is built by good people who care, and it is providing something that people desperately want and need. If you are looking for a Twitter replacement, you can find it in Bluesky today.
However, I stand by my assertions that Bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized and that it is certainly not federated according to any technical definition of federation we have had in a decentralized social network context previously. To claim that Bluesky is decentralized or federated in its current form moves the goalposts of both of those terms, which I find unacceptable.

Ich muss hier ja weiterhin per Hand meine Links raushauen, weil mir AI immer noch nicht das Postalicious-Plugin für WordPress passend hinfrickelt. Ich bleibe in der Technik-Blase: Ava fragt bezüglich der Popularität von Bluesky schön runtergebrochen:
People have spoken about the fact that it feels like old Twitter. Isn’t that… bad?
Es gibt AfD-Politiker, die sind selbst der AfD zu russlandnah.
Der Historiker Karl Schlögel weist darauf hin, dass man den Ernst der Lage erfassen sollte: Russland ist der Feind.
Und während ich mir die Frage stelle: Wer ist der Feind von den USA und Russland, wenn deren Herrscher sich so nah sind? hole ich mir erst noch einen Tee.
