Well, this is an unexpected curveball. Jack Dorsey hopes that Bluesky will be “temporary”.How likely is Bluesky to actually be “temporary”?@fediversenews

Jack Dorsey even implies that #Bluesky is just a “proof of concept”. If that’s true, I hope no institution is setting up an account on Bluesky. Bluesky is fine for shitposting. But anything work-related shouldn’t be hosted on a “proof of concept”.

If #Bluesky really is just a temporary proof of concept, the Tech Press sure has egg in all their faces. This means Bluesky isn’t what they believe it to be.

@atomicpoet bear in mind that Jack does not run the show over at Bluesky. The actual Bluesky team has not confirmed his comment.

@rlux He’s a pretty significant fellow who happens to sit on the board of directors.

@atomicpoet Yes, he is on the board, but he doesn’t drive the roadmap. Jay and her team do. I would want one of them to confirm Jack’s comment before taking it seriously.

@rlux If this isn’t true, he should leave the board.

How can Bluesky be the future when Jack Dorsey says it’s “temporary”?Maybe AT protocol is the future—but that’s a separate matter from Bluesky. The app we’re seeing now may not even exist when AT protocol gets rolled out.

Everything I see about #Bluesky’s app now makes complete sense. If this is meant to be a proof of concept, of course Bluesky won’t concentrate on stuff like DMs or lists or text formatting. Why would they put that kind of work in if this might be temporary?

My big conclusion from Jack Dorsey’s thread is that #Bluesky is NOT comparable to Mastodon.You can’t compare a temporary proof of concept with something that is production-ready right now. The hint is Bluesky’s website: staging.bsky.appIt’s “staging” for a reason!

All those clout-chasing “influencers” on #Bluesky will look ridiculous if the app ceases to exist, and they’re forced to set up their own PDS on a Raspberry Pi. I’m not saying this will happen, but it will be funny if it does. 😆

@atomicpoet yeah, that bugs me a little. Why staging if it’s not a test platform?

@atomicpoet They supposedly have, or are planning to, move it from staging to bsky.app. I still think JACK wants it to be a temporary proof of concept, at odds with the Staff and the other board members.

@atomicpoet @fediversenews ...this, to me, is the whole ballgame. Why, then, does Bluesky (purportedly) trump what Mastodon has done / is doing / will do?

@ChrisPirillo My suspicion is because ActivityPub is server-to-server, and subsists by writing to 1,000s of servers.AT is more convoluted. It’s personal data to big graph server to Labeller / App View / Feed Gen. Why?Well, my suspicion is that Twitter wanted to avoid liability for all the crazy stuff being posted there. Twitter didn’t want to be a publisher. They wanted to be the Google of self-hosted social media posts.

@atomicpoet @majorlinux ATM Bluesky is/was discussed as an alternative to Mastodon on @blackmastodon@a.gup.pe and @BlackMastodon@chirp.social #bluesky

@coastgnu @majorlinux @blackmastodon@a.gup.pe @BlackMastodon@chirp.social I’m not saying AT protocol won’t be an alternative to ActivityPub. What I am saying is that, based on Jack Dorsey’s words, don’t believe that Bluesky (the app/website) is something permanent.

@atomicpoet not cloutchasing. But I will say, it’s a lot more fun, and much easier to on ramp. Been on for 1 week and already have had much more interaction, from shittalk to politics to restaurant recs to self-reflection about the community as it constitutes itself. The mix of generosity + intellect + profanity feels like early bird site days. But with more lewds

@atomicpoet @ActiveCultures To be fair, @atomicpoet, you have quite a following here, as you’ve admitted to in the past: 17,000 v @ActiveCultures with 58 followers(300x more).

@maegul @ActiveCultures But this isn’t my only account. I have great conversations with all my accounts no matter my following.
