Can someone explain to me how Bluesky is different than Mastodon and if it’s not different why they bothered creating it when Mastodon exists? I truly don’t get it.
https://marketvantage.com/blog/what-does-bluesky-mean-for-advertising/
So…Mastodon…with ads?
i don't see what similarities to mastodon it has
They built their own federated protocol and it's a microblog
it isn't very federal at the moment
If AT protocol goes public, other software might federate with existing Bluesky servers. Bluesky servers should have a set of filters that would keep safe for everyone joining the chosen server.
Give Gargron time he'll add ads and buddy up with Meta while signing mystery NDAs
He can add ads if he wants, and you can simply move to another ad-free instance.
That's a serious accusation. Got anything to back it up?
They'd have to do that in custom feeds (which people can ignore) or on 3rd party account servers (which people also can ignore, just like in Mastodon)
