Jack Dorsey says he’s no longer on the Bluesky board

Changed well known Square branding to “Block”. Killed Vine just before TikTok took off. Sold Twitter to Elon Musk. Now kicked off the board of Bluesky. What a genius! 🙄

Mastodon > BlueSky

Lately, it's harder and harder to see a difference between Mastodon and Bluesky, as both are full of VC ghouls now.

I tried saying that on the thread about mastodon announcing they were making a non profit and I got mass down voted

Knowing what we know now that some Mastodon instances will get paid by Meta for federating with Threads, is it that surprising?

I mean Lemmy thread lol, like a comment thread

The only time I remember seeing thread used in reference to a post were forums. My bad.

I guess that depends on the Mastodon server you are on.

BrikoX OP Mod , 14 days ago

I'm on a great instance, but that doesn't help if the instance uses Mastodon software and not a hard fork.

what are VC ghouls?

Folks like Biz Stone. https://techcrunch.com/2024/04/29/twitter-co-founder-biz-stone-joins-mastodons-new-u-s-non-profits-board/

So where do we go to now?

BrikoX OP Mod , 14 days ago

https://gotosocial.org is the most popular alternative, but they are still in alpha stage. I'm open to wait and see how things turn out, but the moves Mastodon is making are not encouraging so far.
