With BlueSky moving towards finally opening up federation, I’m interested in how people feel about it?
Would you be open to the idea of Mastodon, Lemmy, Pixelfed, and other Fediverse platforms adopting the AT protocol in order to federate with it?
If those technical hurdles could be overcome, would you support your instance federating with BlueSky?
Does the same go for other commercially-owned platforms, such as Threads and Tumblr?
I can’t talk about the others involved in BlueSky, but I think Jack Dorsey is genuniely regretful about how Twitter turned out and truthful in his intentions to make a decentralized alternative. I wouldn’t equate BlueSky with the rest of Big Tech. The XMPP creator sitting on the board and the CEO being someone who worked on Zcash, they can’t be that bad.
I wouldn’t consider any link to the cryptocurrency world a positive thing.
it’s a privacy coin. not a very good one, but still. They’ve been around for long, so relatively credible when it comes to crypto.
I get why people have soured to crypto, but secure private cryptos like Monero is by far the best solution for digital money.
Because banks and governments have proven time and time again that they can’t be trusted with money. They screw over the working class every time.
