Bluesky users often forget that nothing prevents it from following the same path as Meta, Google, or X. All these major players started with an open-source, user-centric approach - look at them now.

A VC-funded company doesn't run on good intentions alone. Where will Bluesky be in a decade? We can only guess, but based on social media history, there are two highly likely outcomes:

1. The platform grows, attracts more users, and inevitably shifts toward monetization - introducing ads, engagement-boosting tactics, and other profit-driven features. In other words: enshittification.
2. The service shuts down or gets sold to another company.

Bluesky's fate remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: protocols are meaningless if they aren't fully open and widely adopted from the very start.
