Yeah i’il keep using mastodon and bluesky, also, they already have investors so it’s dead at birth for me
Replying to @Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it
Bluesky is also owned by a corporation and, like Twitter, could sell to a fascist billionaire whenever they find it profitable to do so.
X vs Bluesky is a great microcosm of American team-sports politics. Mastodon is something actually new.

Yeah that’s true but perfect is the enemy of good, Mastodon isn’t gaining much traction so my hope is that at least we can get a federated protocol, whatever it is

Mastodon has a cultural problem… too woke, too many queers and freaky people, autistics, and activitists shilling for lame causes or selling (needless, silly) things. In the real world these people are 3-5% of the population. On the Fediverse, they are 75-90% of the population. Not a place that the other 95-98% of the population really wants to be. The mentally ill, each one given a bullhorn.

Wow it’s been so long since I’ve seen so many faults in one comment.
Do you have someone you can talk to about these feelings? It sounds like you have some repressed feelings in there.
