In case anyone reaches the end of this and reads it as me abjectly shitting on the protocol as being equivalently bad to eg. Twitter, threads, facebook, etc. Thats not what I meant at all. First priority: get people out of surveillance platform traps. BSky is not that YET, and is a sort of decompression chamber with similar aggressive and desperate vibe to twitter. Breaking dependence is hard, bsky is harm reduction. There is a sort of intrinsic visceral truth to "first as a tragedy, then as a farce," once people see a pattern, it's easier to raise critical resistance. Second priority: build a healthy web, p2p the fedi.
