I don’t really get all the pessimism. Even if folks are right in saying there’ll be a bait and switch, this is people moving to a new platform en masse. If Bluesky goes to shit there’s more reason to believe users would just move again.

In the meantime, as members of the fediverse, we should be using Bluesky being “decentralized” as a way to ease people into actually decentralized platforms.

I’m still having a great time with it, but I’m a bit werided out that it looks worse on my Xbox than Rise did on my Switch. Some scenes look like they came straight from the Xbox 360/PS3.
