@chaoddity @Slathe There's no one to trust. It's an open protocol. The worst that could happen is the existing Bluesky server does bad stuff, but AT Protocol make it easy (much easier than Mastodon) to move to another server, and take all your content and connections with you.

  @Slathe The culture at Bluesky is a lot better and more fun. Mastodon tends to be dour, with an over-abundance of scolds. New users come away with a sense that the old users just wish they would go away, and if they won't go away, then they damn well better not violate, intentionally or unintentionally, any of the old guard's strict cultural norms. Bluesky feels like a bunch of people excited to have found each other.

  @arossp @Slathe I haven't had any issues here, personally. Also... not a chance in hell i move over to another Jack Dorsey project after he whored out all of twitter (read, a large percent of the internet) to Elon Musk. Dorsey cannot be trusted. I think everyone going over there is a damn fool.

  @arossp That is nice though it is not clear what you mean.
  Have you not been having fun here?

  Hi, guys. I've been quiet here because I've been playing around on #Bluesky (@aaronrosspowell.com), which is a lot of fun.

    I really want Mastodon to be the next big thing, but it frankly has a culture problem that is going to kill its broader adoption. After quite a long time here, and a few days at Bluesky, the comparative experience looks like this: Bluesky: "Everyone's posting about the latest weird inside joke, and I'm excited to post my weird twist on it!" Mastodon: "Jokes offend me because I was born without a sense of humor. I demand that you wrap all levity in a content warning or I will FediBlock you."
