@vincent @ygalanter@hachyderm.io @Popehat @mmasnick @mattblaze Dunno about the advantages, but I thought people would have learned about social media platforms controlled by unaccountable billionaires by now…

@krans @vincent @ygalanter @Popehat @mmasnick Scolding people who are unhappy here for seeking alternatives that work better for them isn't likely to make them happier here.

@mattblaze @vincent @ygalanter@hachyderm.io @Popehat @mmasnick I personally see no advantages of Bluesky. I'm sure others do. That's good, people are allowed to like things.

@krans luckily there is some good writing adjacent to this!

erinkissane.com/mastodon-is-ea is a solid read; I assume the linked erinkissane.com/the-affordance also is.

BlueSky pretty much does most of the things folks complain about in the first post better. That would be an advantage of BlueSky. I assume you were jumping on thread in the hope of learning some of them, if not sorry to barge in 🙇

@mattblaze @krans @vincent @ygalanter @Popehat @mmasnick Absolutely correct. User experience design is always about the user is actually right... which can get very difficult to govern when the user experience is heavily loaded on how people behave.

It's why I keep saying that every social medium is a governance problem.
