   @BeAware Very key point: "But don't disguise it as some sort "opt-in only stance" because if you're a legit Fediverse admin, you know the Fediverse as a whole is opt-out by design."

     @tchambers @BeAware Also, Mastodon itself relies on corporations

     Bluesky is almost fully open source, as Mastodon is

     And sure, Bluesky is currently operated by just one company. But federation may change that. And many Mastodon instances and services are also operated by companies.

     Refusing to federate with Bluesky because of "corporations" should lead the people who have this stance to *also* disengage with significant portions of Mastodon. But I’m assuming they don’t.

     @tchambers @BeAware I’m increasingly convinced that the backslash against the bridge is actually a backlash against Bluesky. And more specifically, a very misinformed view of what Bluesky actually is.

     Tim Chambers repeated this.
