Farcaster

Bluesky CEO says it’s not just for liberals

worthwhile read on Jay Gruber and Bluesky that highlights much of my own personal "why" behind building decentralized social.

incredibly encouraging to see mainstream media receptive to the idea of returning control of identity, content, and community back to users even if it isn't about Farcaster (yet!).

that’s fine, we share a similar vision imo so should attract those with shared values but who also sense a misalignment

I love the bluesky vision but it's totally at odds with their current community and culture

great, would love to chat and learn about your Bluesky experience

Concept is good. Execution is bad. I have better reach and networking here, on a site with way less users.

Everything on Bluesky is so violently politicized. It makes up a good portion of my feed and really makes me not want to use the platform.

This makes me really happy to read! And to be honest I am really really surprised by it as usually the mainstream media was totally against it but I assume Trump & Co. also have a huge impact on this shift

It will happen slowly, but surely imo🌹

Whenever i get one of these questions i Uno reverse it i go ;

U tell me Why shouldn’t people Join bluesky ?


Am i cooked?

Gives me hope we’re heading in the right direction.
