Bluesky has announced a $15M series A raise by a crypto venture capital fund, leading many people to talk about 'enshittification'. But is enshittification the right way to look at things?
Yes, but I was comparing it to why is BlueSky welcome but Threads is not? Frankly I’d just as sooner keep all commercial entities out of the fedi, but there’s no way to stop them from adding that functionality.
Not that there’s anything stopping some instance of established fedi space from going rogue, sweeping up data and feeding ads either, but at least that’s not their established model today.
