Bluesky has existed for how many years now? It’s kind of bonkers to me that during all this time:
- They keep coming up with “research” that’s like literally googling and reading wikipedia, anyone capable of operating a computer can do that in one evening
- They have done exactly zero actual engineering work
- In the meantime, Twitter, which is supposed to be the first client of their proposed abstract decentralization solution, keeps introducing comically bad UX decisions with some useful functionality sprinkled throughout a boundless ocean of dark patterns. And NFT avatars, because that’s clearly what everyone needs, not a web version that is actually usable. Twitter also keeps its API as closed as it’s ever been. Something doesn’t add up here.
(why is this forum treating every thread as a stackoverflow-style question?)
