    soOoOo…

    been pondering this Bluesky mess, and i think i found a reason for why Bluesky executives didn't want people to find out they took 100 million from Bain Capital:

    ❝ "The Atmosphere currently contains about 20 billion public records—the posts, likes, comments and o͟t͟h͟e͟r͟ i͟n͟t͟e͟r͟a͟c͟t͟i͟o͟n͟s͟ ❞

    what other interactions are there beyond posts, likes and comments?

    oh, right: DIRECT MESSAGES.

    so is this why they kept quiet? that the money was contingent upon them redefining public to include DMs?

    @blogdiva exactly why self hosting is the best step out of this new age internet mess. Moving from one shitty platform to another platform that isn't shitty yet is just waiting for the same process again.

      @blogdiva Follows, blocks, reposts, user / moderation lists, starter packs, etc. DMs aren't and won't be public, obviously, so the "20 billion public records" doesn't include DMs. Although yes, in the current version they are accessible to Bluesky PBC since they're not encrypted.

        @blogdiva @_elena I think you mean Dorsey: According to Wikipedia "In May 2024, he announced he was no longer on the board of directors".

        Unclear if still shareholder, apparently no controlling majority, if so. (edit: see below, he seems to be out)

        Link Preview Image
        Jack Dorsey - Wikipedia

        favicon

        (en.wikipedia.org)

        But no material difference, I'd say.

        @jandi @blogdiva They said before Dorsey owns no shares at all.

            @blogdiva They've been pretty open about the fact that they can access the DMs and so you shouldn't use them for anything very sensitive, they said "if you want private DMs, then just use the DMs here to exchange contacts on Signal and do the conversation on Signal"

              @blogdiva @nazokiyoubinbou Not to say you're wrong, but other interactions that are not DMs include boost, bookmark, share, and translate.

              So it's not like this implicitly means DMs are included, as it would if DMs were the only other type of interaction

                      @blogdiva DMs on Bluesky are not encrypted and, in fairness, they didn't pretend that it is secure and private at the get go.

                        @blogdiva And the worst part is that they verified ICE's account. That's as low as they can sink.

                          @rpf @blogdiva Bluesky DMs are not end-to-end encrypted. And it says so in the fine print.

                            @blogdiva I closed my Blue Sky account about a year ago. Not happy about the direction it was heading. The Fediverse is my haap place!
