I'm generally positive about BlueSky and pleased for their current successes. But I fell like the really hard part is yet to come, and being open might make that part harder. All online communities go through the same phases (or die along the way). In the beginning it's populated by enthusiasts, tech adopters, people with good intentions. The problems are mostly technical and infrastructure. Then it grows rapidly with mostly the same parameters. Then it gets big enough so the trolls, spammers, bots, misogynist, racists, marketers, advertisers et al arrive. At this point the problems become social - moderation etc. Failure to manage this stage well leads to, well, Twitter. And it's by far the hardest part of the whole process. I hope BlueSky get this part right.
