2/Be aware you are effectively operating behind enemy lines. It may be tactically useful to do so, but don’t pretend there is anything “good” happening here. For all the talk about critical thinking, folks could try using some for once. 🤦 https://www.linkedin.com/posts/joecardillo_bluesky-bigtech-socialmedia-activity-7263206291139932161-BTim

    @davetroy@toad.social i spoken with several people that have liked going over there. It seems like the network lock in effect carried over with so many people moving at once. When I point out that it's no longer run by the visionary, and that it's sold out to VC, and that it was no other choice but to follow the money squeezing path... I get looked at like I'm wearing a tin foil hat. I have a literal degree in enshitification. I could consult any business on strategy for monetization. It's only time now

    "No shade if you do use Bluesky, but I would recommend continuing to maintain other profiles and no over investing your time/energy, particularly if you are a news organization or content creator/influencer." @joecardillo@federate.social https://www.linkedin.com/posts/joecardillo_bluesky-bigtech-socialmedia-activity-7263206291139932161-BTim #HatTip to @davetroy@toad.social for the link. #BlueSky

  • @davetroy@toad.social It's like a bad teen horror movie, where you're yelling and the screen, "Don't go into the basement," and you just know they are going to go into the basement. #Bluesky

  • @davetroy@toad.social So, here's the question. Is anyone in our illustrious Tech Media going to do some reporting on the ownership of Bluesky and these ties ☝️, or is it just going to continue to be a parade of puff pieces? It would seem that they have a duty to inform their audience, but of course, that hasn't worked too well in the past.
