Seriously i have zero idea what is going on with bluesky. I never used it. Why are people saying it's centralised? I also heard that a lot of people are joining it.

Bluesky, as a user feels like Twitter used to be.

Threads is the most enjoyable, I feel.

Mastodon, I don't get. I've been on it awhile but it's becoming used less and less by me because I don't see content I'm interested in our want to engage with and I don't know how to change it.

Essentially, everyone is on bsky now. News organizations FINALLY decided to leave Twitter and are spinning up their bsky accounts.

I assume Mastodon is equally capable of recommending things, but if it's a common problem that people aren't patient enough with then it could be fatal. It's still an open question whether federation as its been used thus far is really there yet. I'm not entirely convinced, I'm glad it's being tried. I'll take a stab at it, I've worked on P2P distributed key-value storage for years. No huge ambitions though, I don't really care about this use case. My conception of federation is closer to newsgroups, ideally it's a global namespace for a topic but the feed is controllable by, effectively, a federated moderator web-of-trust that users can selectively opt into and demote mods as a personal preference. Maybe someone else can do it because I'm so disinterested.

It has some flaw, but overall it's actually usable.

Missing some minor features like editing posts.

Nothing is wrong with it. It is just much earlier in the timeline of becoming twitter/xitter eventually. Maybe it'll take longer this time, maybe the change will be more subtle.

Or maybe it won't happen at all.
