fucking bluesky openwashing

if bsky/atproto isn't fashtech, it works just like fashtech

(y'know apart from the bit where bsky corp is literally rationalists, coiners and neoreactionaries)

so they do a lot of openwashing theatre. they never shut the fuck up about how open and decentralised they are.

while in practice being 99.99+% one single fucking app run by one company

with an "open" protocol they're making up as they go along

that just happens to have a fuckload of central control points, over and over

blacksky sets up an entire separate infra! bluesky bans a blacksky user. whoops they're banned on blacksky too

shit like that that shows the whole thing as a lie, and these fucks keep saying "decentralised"

everything that works well about bsky works well precisely insofar as it's a single instance.

the promise of atproto is the fediverse but shit.

it's been two and a half fuckin years. jesus.
