BlueSky wants you to trust them, but they raised $100 million from a crypto fund almost a YEAR AGO and didn't tell anyone.

@mariafarrell right? It would have been better to say nothing at all, rather than "we were too busy"

It's not a steering wheel. GOATSE was an early internet meme of a man reaching back and stretching his butthole wide open. Consider it lucky that you learned about it this way.

@_elena @dangillmor I see he's been practicing his Elon style "I think this is what super geniuses talk like" clipped sentence writing

@dangillmor Bluesky can go fuck itself. Same shitbag who started Twitter and sucks up to Nazis started that cesspool. No thank you. #GetFucked #Bluesky

@dangillmor It’s the inevitability of things like this that makes the decision to stay away from corporate monoliths so much easier.

I'm missing something, I guess.

I trust BlueSky to the same extent that I trust my landline. It is a medium of communication.

So I know that's not your point.

I'm often considered elderly, possibly because of age.
What am I missing?

@dangillmor I’m missing the nuance here. Why is everyone upset? I’m not saying there isn’t a reason to be so, just legit don’t understand.

@dangillmor Luckily crypto has always proven to be trustful and not scammy at all!

@jwz @dangillmor I'm thinking any "social" software that isn't open source and distributed can never really be trusted.
