This is the only thing that ever plays in my mind when reading "Jack Dorsey": > Twitter user @deyonte_btc asks: Stream sats. Build LN into BlueSky or Twitter please and thank you. > @jack replies: Only a matter of time https://twitter.com/jack/status/1403174877444587523 https://twitter.com/jack/status/1403174877444587523 I will never trust a crypto-bro's product until they take the crypto-bro out of it.

  BlueSky has never had cryptocurrency stuff in it, nor plans to, though they do use one or two techniques that are also popular in the crypto space.

I wonder if this is related to his recent tweets about the pro-Palestine student protests.

No surprise since he spends most of his time on Nostr nowadays.

  This was old news on bsky months ago

    It was known that Jack had deleted his account and that he was bullish on nostr, but the news of him leaving the board is new and only a few days old.

I still don't know why seemingly no one has been able to create a good clone of 2010-2015 Twitter. Mastodon is clunky, BlueSky was invite-only for so long that people lost interest, and any "free speech" version gets flooded by the "I want to say slurs without consequences" crowd.

    How does it tackle things like replies? Like if I am not following someone and they reply to my post.

Bluesky is not gaining traction. X seems to be where the action is nowadays.

  Yeah I love Elon tweets being forced on me, lots of awesome action

    Don’t be dramatic. Just mute him if for some reason appears in your “For you” feed

      It's not dramatic, it's insane behavior to force yourself into everyones feed
