This has absolutely nothing to do with enshittification. Bluesky doesn’t need that redirect to know what you’re clicking on. You’re already on their platform, they can already track every single click that you do while on Bluesky including navigating to outbound links. I’m a bit shocked that nobody here is calling that out to be honest
Eh. Doesn’t seem too bad, but then again, I haven’t made an account there because of it not really being decentralized enough for my taste.
Seems kinda dumb to go from one centralized service like X to another. Bluesky’s claims of being decentralized are highly exaggerated.But anyone with a few million bucks can federate!
I have like $10.52 in my checking acc right now, but am still currently federating and have been for like 3 months, specifically the social-app and the PDS.
As predicted… And people piled on me here when I question why they were falling head over heels over bluesky when it was yet another techo bro platform
So much for the claims I read that it would be a more open platform. I can’t see how this possibly benefits the users.
The product is
not open source and itis mainly controlled by a company through its servers and proprietary components. They own it. Even if they use some open protocols. They are about as open as OpenAI — they are not.
