#Threads / Meta continue feeling the heat from the #Bluesky.

They're testing letting you pin any feed as your home, and making feeds more visible on mobile.

Bluesky and Mastodon will continue to be my home though. Fool me once with a bajillionaire-owned platform...

@gamingonlinux "Bluesky and Mastodon will continue to be my home though. Fool me once with a bajillionaire-owned platform.."

Literally what Bluesky is though......

So I guess that's "fool me twice. Or three times. Or whatever."

@nazokiyoubinbou Bluesky is open protocol and open source

@gamingonlinux In the end it's no more open than Facebook having APIs for some external things to access.

It's still centralized and all the open things connect to the centralization. Even if you build something based on their modified protocol, you can't "federate." The closest thing you can do is what the bridge bot does.

But I guess you'll just have to see for yourself.

@lewdmachines @nazokiyoubinbou if you care about decentralisation above all else fine, but i didn’t even mention it

Why is it on Mastodon, without fail, any time I mention any other service all the reply guys come along to go at me for it, y’all so tiring

sweet conceit
Quiet public

@gamingonlinux @nazokiyoubinbou it must be rad to comment things like how something is open source and open protocol and then get upset and derogatory when people want to talk about what those things mean

you're a real winner

@fluchtkapsel @gamingonlinux @nazokiyoubinbou I specifically stated "maybe they get to actual decentralization, maybe not" and I have no interest in purity tests, I was not shitting on BlueSky. I think it's fine, but I also think there's a *lot* of press about how it's so open and they themselves talk up their "federation"

nothing in my post was giving anyone shit, just commenting on the topic, but I got a "LOL MASTODON REPLY GUYS" response so cool 👍
