3 days agoFederation and decentralization is not what the users of bsky want. It’s (for some) a nice to have thing but way down on the list of what they value.
People here are satisfied with using the ActivityPub services and content with slow growth of a now sustainable but relatively small user group.
The people who want to use bsky just want a better Twitter. And bsky has delivered that. If that’s temporary, it’s better for them to use it while it lasts because Mastodon is absolutely not what those people using bsky want. Mastodon to them is technically worse than Twitter but something they may settle for if bsky wasn’t an option.
