...and they're still too weak willed to do anything other than jump ship to another corporate shithole that's sure to enshittify (Bluesky literally owes millions to Blockchain Capital). Then they yell "I'll just move to the next big thing when that's over!" (Nevermind that you've created another billionaire who will use their money to influence politics in the process) Man, these people really love the capital class just exploiting the living shit out of their lives every step of the way, don't they? Because learning a different system that doesn't have corporate polish is too hard. Better to just get all your data sucked up and exploited time and time again rather than choosing a non-corporate option that doesn't involve making a small number of people obscenely rich just because you used their social media.

Humans are fucking trash.

Bluesky already started to give special treatment to some far-right agitators (Jesse Singal), so the enshittification might begin even before the monetization.

Also someone have yet to write anything with ATProto to give Bluesky some reality check.
